Best Answer

No, it will only make it worse, because the inhaler will raise your heart rate, open your airways and increase your blood pressure. If you hyperventilate during a panic attack, try breathing into a paper bag and start learning different breathing techniques to help bring your breathing and heart rate down to normal.
