Sorry I do not use ventolin as it causes me palpitations. I am on a duel inhaler called symbicort. Sorry I can't help.

Your comment appears to be an answer to someone else's question, not a question about a problem you have . Is that the case? Or do you have a problem yourself?

I don't have problem, but can't use ventolin, due to palpitations that it causes.

I now think that you were trying to answer "Does peak flow increase in non asthmatics following Ventolin."

Ventolin (salbutamol) is a rescue inhaler that you use when you have a crisis. Symbicort it’s a treatment inhaler with corticoides that you need to use daily. Ask your doctor for other rescue inhaler, you will be needing it if you have an asthma attack
