...one I learned from someone on Reddit - he had the idea but I actually gave it a shot. Before I go on, there has to be a

As some of y'all may know I didn't quit smoking early enough to avoid COPD and adult onset asthma. The Reddit user I mentioned above was a nonsmoker with asthma and asked about vaping his inhaled asthma medication (Albuterol, salbutamol to those outside the Colonies).
I did some research, learned Albuterol wasn't flammable but couldn't find any information in its MSDS to learn whether it broke down into more toxic components and at what temperature that might happen but decided to give it a shot anyway.
I took the contents of a 1.25mg/ml tube of Albuterol nebulizer solution, added flavoring and 100mg VG nic base to equal 6ml of 25mg/ml finished mix and put the concoction into a clean Stardust v2 clearo.
It worked.
A breathing treatment takes me about ten minutes. After chain-vaping the mix for about the same amount of time I got about the same effect as I would from the aforementioned breathing treatment.
Because the mix is mostly water with ~25% VG vapor production is minimal and if I were to do this again I'd use a fair bit more flavoring than you would with a VG or PG/VG mix but it did open up my lungs.
I had some concerns about the solution being too weak to have any effect but that wasn't the case; I figure that unlike a breathing treatment all of the medicine got into my lungs.
As I mentioned in the disclaimer above I can't recommend anyone else try this and will understand if mods decide to remove the post, but I really hate taking breathing treatments and this mix has replaced my morning vape.
cheers -
