salbutamol manicness

[mummynumnum]

DD having v high temps and was abs manic in night. thought prob fever but had a dose of salbutamol liquid prescribed by gp. Can that make you manic/delirious like?

dont know about meds doing that but a high temp can HTH

salbutamol inhalers make my LO hypo though, is that what you mean?

Salbutamol has never affected me (or DS when had a bout of croup) but a high temperature can definitely affect your DC.

Once DS woke up (when he was quite young, about 2.5 - 3 I seem to recall) with a soaring temperature. He was clapping his hands, staring wildly into space, sort of screaming and shouting all at the same time. He was absolutely soaking wet... I undressed him, wiped him down with a damp cloth (dampened with tepid water NOT cold) and talked quietly to him. He soon calmed down and then "woke up". He was still "asleep" through the rantings. All brought on by the high temperature - I believe it's called Febrile Convulsions. A little scary, but easy to control once you know how.

Oops - killed another thread!!

my nephew gets very hyper when he is given this.

It was a syrup. Could be either or me thinks!
