> I used a Ventolin inhaler, along with Ventolin syrup for 10 years. I used the inhaler several times a day...until I tried Montelukast (cingulair), and I never needed the ventolin again... I never noticed any positive effects on my mood...however, my psychiatrist insists that Ventolin was a major contributer to my initial diagnosis of Panic disorder, then social anxiety...since beta-blockers give me significant relief of my anxiety problems
Interesting. I've thought of asking my pdoc for a beta-blocker - but once I was on Inderal (propanderal?) and it serverly effected my asthma and my inhalers where rendered useless. Is there a beta-blocker that doesn't effect respiration so much?
