Answers:

i don't understand why people think these things are playtoys OR why they don't follow the dosage their supposed to!!

you need to call 911 or have someone take you to the hospital. albuterol (medication in the inhalor) is a medication AND a steriod on top of that and you can overdose on it just like any other med.

you could go into cardiac arrest and die (i'm not kidding). the steriods in the inhaler are designed to open up your lungs so you can breathe-they also raise blood pressure and heart rate. since you took more than you were supposed to-your heartrate is probably through the ceiling and your heart could get so overworked-it just stops.

you need to seek medical attention now
