    I'm really confused, a few weeks ago when I got the foster kittens, the foster mom I took them from had a list written out that stated Albuterol a drop in each nostril.

    That med was almost done, so I only did it for a few days.

    Kitten got well, then relapsed, has bronchitis now. Shelter Vet gave me albuterol again, directions simply say .1 cc 3x per day. Now I'm wondering is this oral and not nasal? It is not the inhaler type albuterol for asthma, it's a liquid.

    I can't read the directions on the box, as the vet simply put some fluid in a prescription bottle.

    Anyone know?

    It's given orally. Thanks, I should have noted that.
