Question 5 of 5

Are tremors a reason to avoid using a short-acting β2-adrenergic (SABA) inhaler?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Tremors are a common side effect of short-acting β2-adrenergic (SABA) medications and not a reason to avoid using the SABA inhaler. Inhaled corticosteroids do not act rapidly to reduce dyspnea. Rapid inhalation is needed when using a DPI. The patient should hold the breath for 10 seconds after using inhalers.
