Chinaman ODs on Ventolin
A Chinaman named Weijian Lin overdosed on Ventolin, had a heart attack, and died.
The cops measured the dead Chinaman's apparatus. It's about 3 1/2 inches long.

Condolences to the family and friends.
It takes some fairly solid commitment to OD on Ventolin, way to commit!
Although to be fair, when you need the stuff, that first hit is pretty addictive - and you can feel your heart accelerate on a double-huff.

Article concerning Ventolin here:
The bronchodilator salbutamol (Ventolin) is associated with increased myocardial injury in a pre-clinical heart attack model
Salbutamol is widely used to treat symptoms of chest tightness commonly associated with Asthma. Recent studies have associated increased in morbidity and mortality in asthmatic patients with underlying heart disease currently being treated with salbutamol. The study aimed to investigate the effects of salbutamol on the myocardium subjected to ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R).
This study is the first to identify the cardiotoxic effects of salbutamol in a pre-clinical heart attack model. Further studies are being investigated to determine the mechanism of action of the myocardial injury associated with salbutamol.

Re: Chinaman ODs on Ventolin
In Australia the push for decades has been to reduce the need for bronchodilation using steroids - apart from chronic asthmatics if you experience attacks other than during sport, sudden temperature changes etc. you're usually put on a treatment plan. Perth in WA has the highest incidence rate of asthma globally, and has a couple of research centres. I was a guinea pig for trialing pharmaceuticals that had already been approved in other western countries, but not yet approved in Australia, and somehow magically always ended up on Team Non-Placebo as I have an enlarged heart and lungs, and can blow a tidal air volume within the approval requirements even when having a mild attack. The steroids are known to also be a Bad Thing, but are preferred to the bronchodilator in terms of risk.Kuroneko wrote: ↑Mon Sep 17, 2018 12:49 pm Article concerning Ventolin here:

Re: Chinaman ODs on Ventolin
It’s a fine line. A little bit opens up the airways, a little more stresses the heart, more after jacks up the blood pressure and stresses the heart even more.

Re: Chinaman ODs on Ventolin
It is indeed - and a little works wonders for night cough, but if you start using it every night you get addicted to the response (rather than the chemical) and that leads down a dangerous path.newkidontheblock wrote: ↑Mon Sep 17, 2018 1:03 pm It’s a fine line.
