Can Strattera Be Taken Along With Albuterol?

I am currently on adderol and was given a genetic test to see what drugs may work best to treat my ADHD and my doctor called to say they wanted to switch me to Strattera. I was just reading the insert that came with it and it says don t take it if you use Albuterol and I am on Combivent and Advair. Should I switch to the Stratera?

May cause Racing heart beat and high blood pressure if taken together. If very necessary to be taken together, your physician needs close monitoring for that. Better to avoid using concomitantly. If given together, they also interact with other drugs and may raise their effects on the body.
