Asthalin HFA inhaler 100mcg is a prescription inhaler used to provide rapid relief from breathing problems related to asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and other conditions involving airway obstruction. Asthalin has a rapid onset of action and helps patients breathe more easily by relaxing airway muscles and improving airflow in the lungs. The active ingredient is salbutamol, a short-acting beta-2 agonist (SABA). These are often called rescue medications because they offer fast relief during sudden episodes of wheezing, chest tightness, coughing, or shortness of breath. The HFA inhaler is meant to deliver a fine mist of medication deep into the lungs for maximum effectiveness. Asthalin HFA begins its action within a few minutes of administration, making it an effective formulation for managing asthma attacks or sudden breathing issues. In most cases, you will be given another inhaler medication, known as a preventer, to help prevent your symptoms, and you should use it regularly. The inhaler works quickly, but the effects can last for several hours. It is also helpful in preventing exercise-induced bronchospasm when used before physical activity, as advised by your healthcare specialist.
What precautions should be taken for Asthalin HFA inhaler 100 mcg?
Asthalin HFA inhaler 100mcg is contraindicated in patients hypersensitive to salbutamol or to any of the active ingredients in the medication. Patients should always carry their Asthalin HFA inhaler to use immediately if an asthma episode occurs. If the treatment fails to produce improvement or if the patient’s condition worsens, medical advice must be sought to determine an alternative treatment. If acute or rapidly worsening dyspnea, a healthcare provider should be consulted straight away. Special care and close supervision are needed in patients with idiopathic hypertrophic subvalvular aortic stenosis (a significant obstruction to the blood flow ejecting out of the left ventricle tract, causing increased strain on the left ventricle). Before using an Asthalin inhaler 100mcg, you should inform your healthcare specialist if you have an overactive thyroid, high blood pressure, diabetes, a history of heart problems, or low potassium levels in your blood. Also, make sure your healthcare professional is aware if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before taking this medication. The asthma medication may make you feel shaky or dizzy; therefore, avoid driving, using tools or machinery until you feel better. Do not smoke as it can damage your lungs and will cause worsening of the condition.
What are the possible side effects of Asthalin inhaler 100mcg?
Asthalin HFA inhaler 100mcg is generally safe and effective but may cause side effects, including headaches, tremors, viral respiratory tract infections, cough, and palpitations. These side effects are not usually life-threatening and should gradually improve as your body adjusts to the asthma medication. There are other rare side effects, and you should contact your healthcare specialist straight away if you experience a headache, chest pain, or severe dizziness.
How to use Asthalin HFA inhaler 100mcg?
Asthalin HFA inhaler 100mcg is to be administered by oral inhalation only. It is important to use the inhaler correctly as advised by the healthcare specialist. When an asthma attack occurs, you must take the number of puffs prescribed by your healthcare specialist. There are numerous inhaler devices, so make sure you use the inhaler correctly; otherwise, it will not work. Do not discontinue using it unless your health care specialist tells you to. If you stop, you may experience worsening of your breathing issues. Dosage should be individualised, and the patient's response should be monitored by the healthcare provider on an ongoing basis. If inhaled salbutamol is not adequate to control asthma, concomitant anti-inflammatory medications should be included in the treatment plan. If a previously effective dose is no longer effective, or if the dose's effect lasts for less than 3 hours, patients should consult their healthcare provider, as this is a sign of worsening asthma. As there may be side effects associated with excessive dosing, the use and frequency should be increased only under the supervision of a healthcare specialist. However, if a more severe attack has not been relieved by the usual recommended dose, additional doses may be required. In such cases, patients should consult their healthcare specialists straightaway.
The recommended dose for the relief of acute episodes of bronchospasm in adults and adolescents 12 years and older is one to two inhalations. For children 6 to 11 years of age, one inhalation is sufficient, as advised by the healthcare specialist.
If a more severe attack has been relieved by the usual dose, further inhalations may be required at intervals of 4 to 6 hours. In these cases, patients should consult their healthcare specialist straight away. More frequent usage or a large number of inhalations should not be advised.
For detailed instructions, carefully review your prescription. Use it exactly as your healthcare specialist advises.
