Relief and prevention of bronchospasm in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including wheezing, shortness of breath and chest tightness
How It Works
Levosalbutamol is a selective beta-2 adrenergic agonist. It relaxes bronchial smooth muscles and widens the airways, improving airflow and easing breathing.
Directions for Use
For inhalation use only with a compatible DPI device (as advised). Place one capsule in the device, pierce as per device instructions and inhale the full dose deeply; do not swallow the capsule. Use at the same time each day or as prescribed; if using other inhalers, follow the sequence advised by the doctor.
Not for acute severe asthma attack unless specifically prescribed as a reliever; seek urgent care if symptoms worsen or need increases. Use with caution in heart disease, hypertension, arrhythmias, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, seizure disorders and in patients sensitive to sympathomimetics. May cause hypokalemia; caution if on diuretics or steroids. Overuse can lead to reduced control and serious cardiovascular effects.
Drug Interactions
Beta-blockers (may reduce effect), other sympathomimetics, MAO inhibitors/TCAs (increase cardiovascular effects), diuretics and corticosteroids (increase risk of low potassium), theophylline (additive stimulation), digoxin (may reduce digoxin levels)
