User Reviews for Levalbuterol

Xopenex (levalbuterol) for COPD, Acute: I used xopenex for the first time yesterday and found it to be very effective. It works fast and releaves the symptoms, I had no side effects.

Xopenex (levalbuterol) for COPD, Acute: I have been using this for two months now and it is very helpful, a lot better than the albuterol solution I had for my nebulizer. This is wonderful. I can actually catch my breath with this and can walk a lot further using it.

Xopenex (levalbuterol) for COPD, Maintenance: 32yr old female with copd and asthma. After trying several inhalers Xopenex is the best by far for me. Have experienced no side effects and it significantly opens my airways.

Xopenex (levalbuterol) for Asthma, Maintenance: It works so much better than albuterol. It doesn't make you choke and there is little or no heart racing after using it.

Xopenex (levalbuterol) for Asthma, acute: Provided as an alternative to albuterol as my sons heart beat went very high with albuterol. Very effective.

Xopenex (levalbuterol) for COPD, Acute: I have found this to work better for me than other medications I've used in a nebulizer. I use it four times a day and it helps me breath better. However, I still have to use Proventil HFA between my treatments. That could be because of the severity of my COPD.

Xopenex (levalbuterol) for COPD, Acute: Wonderful, wonderful medicine. The only problem is Medicare will not pay the providers for this brand name drug only for generic (which this drug is not). However, because of this the pharmacy will not fill the prescription if you are under Medicare insurance as they will lose money. (It is always about the dollar and not what is best for the patient). Xopenex is a wonderful medicine and I would recommend it to anyone.

levalbuterol for Asthma, acute: This is significantly better than the albuterol. I've had asthma for 17 years and always suffered from horrible side effects of albuterol- racing heart, tremors, being jittery; I heard about levalbuterol and LOVE it- such an improvement- works just as well as albuterol with fewer side effects. Way to go!

Xopenex HFA (levalbuterol) for Asthma, acute: As a rescue inhaler - this one is the best! It does not cause you to feel jittery like the others do. It sometimes costs more than the other brands, but it is well worth it. My son has moderate asthma that is under excellent control, until the dreaded fall allergy season. He is very active and plays football and being exposed to his outdoor allergies in combination with the physical exercise, causes him to occasionally need the inhaler. He used to delay using his rescue inhaler because he did not want to feel jittery and he could not stand the taste the others put in the mouth. This brand gives him that immediate relief, but has exhibited no side effects in him. I can also testify first-hand as I used it when I had bronchitis.

Xopenex (levalbuterol) for Asthma, Maintenance: I took Mucinex along with Xopenex. I had a terrible feeling for about 6 hours.

Xopenex (levalbuterol) for Asthma, Maintenance: After taking albuterol (and various brands of albuterol) for years, I got a chance to try Xopenex almost a year ago, and I love it! I used to be scared to take albuterol, because it made me so shaky, even at only half the perscribed dose. But I can take the full dosage of Xopenex prescribed without feeling shaky at all!
