Official Title: The Various Effects of Gaseous Albuterol on Serum Lactate
Brief Summary:
Empirical data from physician observation indicates an increase in serum lactate in acute asthmatic patients being treated with inhaled albuterol therapy.
It is not clear if this increased serum lactate is in response to a physiological response to the asthmatic process or from the albuterol treatment.
This study is designed to determine if administration of inhaled albuterol increases serum lactate in healthy subjects.
