Answer to Question 1

2
Normal intraocular pressure is about 15 mmHg 3 mmHg. An intraocular pressure of 5 mmHg would be too low. A pressure of 30 to 50 mmHg would be considered critical.

Albuterol causes nervousness, tachycardia, insomnia, dizziness, tremors, hypertension, headache, and irritation to the nasal and throat passages. Albuterol does not cause bradycardia, drowsiness, or nasal congestion.
