SALBUTAMOL aerosol

Therapeutic Action

Inhaled short-acting beta2 agonist (SABA) bronchodilator

After inhalation, it causes rapid bronchodilation within minutes and lasting for 4-6 hours.

Indications

Symptomatic treatment of asthma attack

For severe acute asthma attacks, prefer nebulised salbutamol given through a nebuliser.

Instructions for use

Suspension or solution in a Pressurised Metered-Dose Inhaler (MDI): a small canister containing a mixture of medicine and a pressurised propellant. The pressure from the propellant delivers the medicine when the canister is pushed down into the boot/actuator.

Method of administration:

  • Shake the inhaler and ensure that the liquid can be heard moving inside. Remove the mouthpiece cover.
  • Inhale fully, then exhale as completely as possible.
  • Place the lips firmly around the mouthpiece.
  • Start to inhale with a long, slow breath and continue to breath deeply while activating the inhaler (puff).
  • Remove the inhaler, close the lips, and hold the breath for 10 seconds, or as long as is comfortable.
  • Exhale slowly, wait a few seconds, shake the inhaler again, and repeat for the next puff, if needed.

Manufacturers may express the content per puff as either:

  • in metered dose: the quantity of medicine in the device metering chamber, excluding the valve
  • in delivered dose: the quantity of medicine delivered to the user, excluding the mouthpiece.
  • Always refer to the product leaflet.

The inhalers generally supplied by MSF are pressurised metered-dose inhalers (MDI). Refer to the information leaflet for appropriate instructions for use, according to the inhaler model.

The pressurised metered-dose inhalers are CFC free. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are harmful to the ozone layer. Instead these inhalers use HFA (hydrofluoroalkane) propellants. which are a more effective and environmentally friendly alternative.

Precautions for Use

In children, use an inhalation chamber/spacer with or without a mask (depending on the child's age) with every administration of a pressurised metered-dose inhaler.

In patients who have difficulty coordinating the actuation on the metered-dose inhaler and inhalation (e.g elderly patients), use an inhalation chamber/spacer to facilitate administration and improve the effectiveness of the product.

Only use the mouthpiece supplied with the inhaler. Do not substitute it with any other mouthpiece.
