Hi george,

The most common side effects of Albuterol are fine tremor, anxiety, headache, muscle cramps, dry mouth, and palpitation. Other symptoms may include tachycardia, arrhythmia, flushing, myocardial ischemia, and disturbances of sleep and behavior. Rarely occurring, but of importance, are allergic reactions of paradoxical bronchospasm, urticaria, angioedema, hypotension, and collapse. High doses may cause hypokalaemia which are of concern in patients with renal failure and those on certain diuretics and xanthine derivatives.

I think you did the best thing you could do for the moments notice, by trying to contact pharmacist and her doctor as soon as you realized the mistake. Did they ever get back to you yet?
