Drug Information
11 reviews for Albuterol (Ventolin)
Ventolin contains Albuterol.
Albuterol (also called salbutamol) is a reliever inhaler, often called the "blue inhaler". It quickly opens the airways during an asthma attack or when you are wheezy or short of breath.
It works within minutes and lasts about 4 to 6 hours. Everyone with asthma should carry a reliever with them.
What is it used for?
- Fast relief of asthma symptoms and attacks
- Preventing asthma triggered by exercise
- Relief of breathlessness in COPD
How does it work?
Albuterol relaxes the muscles around the airways, which quickly opens them up so air can flow in and out more easily.
This information is written in simple words to help you understand this product. It does not replace advice from your doctor or pharmacist.
Read these points before you start. If any of them apply to you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist first.
- Learn how to use your inhaler correctly. Ask your pharmacist or nurse to check your technique. Using a spacer can help with some inhalers.
- Tell your doctor if your asthma or COPD is getting worse, for example if you need your reliever more often than usual.
- Tell your doctor if you have heart problems, high blood pressure, diabetes, an overactive thyroid, or low potassium.
- Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- If you need your reliever more than 3 times a week, your asthma may not be well controlled. See your doctor.
- Tell your doctor or pharmacist about every other medicine, vitamin or herbal product you use.
- Keep this product out of the reach and sight of children.
Like all medicines, Ventolin can cause side effects, but not everybody gets them.
Common side effects
- Shaking, especially of the hands
- Fast or pounding heartbeat
- Headache
- Muscle cramps
- Feeling nervous
These are usually mild and often get better as your body gets used to it. Tell your doctor if they bother you or do not go away.
Stop using it and get medical help straight away if you notice:
- Breathing that suddenly gets worse straight after using the inhaler (wheezing, tight chest). Use your reliever and get medical help.
- Signs of an allergic reaction, such as swelling of the face or lips, a rash, or trouble breathing
- Chest pain or a fast, uneven heartbeat
- Your reliever is not helping, or the effect does not last 3 hours. Get urgent medical help.
This is not a complete list. If you notice anything unusual, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
- Use 1 to 2 puffs when you need them, for wheezing, coughing or breathlessness.
- Shake the inhaler, breathe out, put the mouthpiece in your mouth, press once while breathing in slowly and deeply, then hold your breath for 10 seconds. Wait about 30 seconds before a second puff.
- A spacer can help the medicine reach your lungs, especially for children.
- For exercise-induced asthma, use 2 puffs 15 minutes before exercise.
- In an asthma attack: sit up, take 1 puff every 30 to 60 seconds up to 10 puffs. If you do not feel better, call an ambulance.
If you miss a dose: It is used when needed, so this does not apply.
If you use too much: Contact your doctor, a poison control centre or your local emergency number straight away, even if you feel fine. Take the pack with you.
How to store it: Keep it in its original pack at room temperature (below 25°C / 77°F), away from heat, damp and direct sunlight. Do not use it after the expiry date.
- QHow do I know if my inhaler is empty?
- A
Check the dose counter if it has one. If it does not, keep track of how many puffs you have used.
- QWhy does my asthma plan matter?
- A
A written asthma action plan tells you what to do every day, when symptoms get worse, and in an emergency. Ask your doctor or nurse for one.
- QHow often can I use Ventolin?
- A
Use it when you need it. If you need it more than 3 times a week, or more than usual, see your doctor, as your preventer treatment may need changing.
- QHow do I clean my Ventolin inhaler?
- A
Remove the metal canister and rinse the plastic holder in warm water once a week. Let it dry fully before putting the canister back.
