What Are Effects Of Giving Double Dose Of Albuterol To Baby?

I accidentally gave my 7 month old a double dose of aburtral. She was in a nebulizer. I know there was some liquid in the container left and she fought the nebulizer the whole time. I know she didnt inhale all if it. It has been 2 hours since she took it and she is sleeping and breathing fine. Do I need tondo anything? I gave her 2 of the small tubes.

Hello i just read your query,
No that's not a problem if you accidentally gave albuterol twice the dose for nebulization . Although this act shouldn't be repeated in the future it causes just a bit of rise in the heart rate for sometime and that's not too much of a problem.
No, no need to do anything now ,your baby is sleeping and breathing fine and i am sure he is OK.
Hope that solves your query.
