Administering Ventolin (albuterol) intravenously is generally not recommended and can lead to potential dangers, including increased heart rate (tachycardia), elevated blood pressure, and electrolyte imbalances. IV administration bypasses the usual respiratory route, which may cause more systemic effects rather than localized bronchodilation. Careful monitoring and consideration of alternative routes are essential when using albuterol in acute situations. Always consult with a healthcare professional for appropriate use and dosing.
