Albuterol
Dosing
Albuterol inhalation liquid is for use
in a nebulizer. Nebulizers alter a solution of albuterol
into an aerosol for inhalation through the mouth and into
the lungs. The flow rate is adjusted to supply a accurate
dose. Follow the product instructions to prepare and
administer the albuterol inhalation solution. Follow the
directions for accurate use of the nebulizer. Carefully
read the product instructions provided; take precautions
to prevent bacterial contamination of the albuterol dose
or nebulizer procedure. Use doses at fixed intervals. Do
not use more often than directed.
Contact your pediatrician or health care
professional about the use of this medicine in children.
Special care may be required.
What if I miss a albuterol
dose?
If you overlook a dose, use it as soon as you
can. If it is almost time for your next dose, use only
that dose. Do not use double or extra doses.
Tell your prescriber or health care
professional about all other medicines you are taking,
counting nonprescription medicines, nutritional
supplements, or herbal goods. Also tell your prescriber or
health care professional if you are a regular user of
drinks with caffeine or alcohol, if you smoke, or if you
use illegal drugs. These may change the way your medicine
works. Check before starting or stopping any of your
medicines.
