Summary of Product Characteristics
Health Products Regulatory Authority Summary of Product Characteristics 1 NAME OF THE MEDICINAL PRODUCT Salbutamol CFC-Free Inhaler 100 micrograms per metered dose, pressurised inhalation, suspension 2 QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION One metered dose contains 100 micrograms of salbutamol (equivalent to 120 micrograms of salbutamol sulphate). This is equivalent to a delivered dose of 90 micrograms of salbutamol (equivalent to 108 micrograms of salbutamol sulphate). For the full list of excipients, see section 6.1. 3 PHARMACEUTICAL FORM Pressurised inhalation suspension Pressurised inhalation suspension supplied in an aluminium canister with a metering valve and a plastic actuator and dust cap. 4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 Therapeutic Indications Salbutamol CFC-Free Inhaler is indicated in adults, adolescents and children. For babies and children under 4 years of age, see sections 4.2 and 5.1. Salbutamol CFC-Free Inhaler is indicated for the relief and prevention of bronchial asthma and conditions associated with reversible airways obstruction. Salbutamol CFC-Free Inhaler can be used as relief medication in the management of mild, moderate or severe asthma, provided that its use does not delay the introduction and use of regular inhaled corticosteroid therapy, where necessary. 4.2 Posology and method of administration Salbutamol CFC-Free Inhaler is for oral inhalation use only. Posology Adults (including the elderly) and adolescents (children 12 years and over): For the relief of acute bronchospasm, one inhalation (100 micrograms) increasing to two inhalations (200 micrograms), if necessary. To prevent allergen- or exercise-induced symptoms, two inhalations (200 micrograms) should be taken 10-15 minutes before challenge. Maximum daily dose: two inhalations (200 micrograms) up to four times a day. -

2019 Year in Review: Aerosol Therapy
2019 Year in Review: Aerosol Therapy Ariel Berlinski Introduction COPD Newly Approved Drugs Asthma New Devices As-Needed Inhaled Corticosteroid/Long-Acting Bronchodilator Therapy Asthma Medication Report in Adolescents and Caregivers Cystic Fibrosis Hypertonic Saline in Cystic Fibrosis Infectivity of Cough Aerosols in Cystic Fibrosis Liposomal Amikacin for MAC Lung Disease Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems E-Cigarette or Vaping Associated Lung Injury Secondhand Exposure Summary Relevant publications related to medicinal and toxic aerosols are discussed in this review. Treatment of COPD includes a combination of long-acting bronchodilators and long-acting muscarinic antagonists. A combination of aclidinium bromide and formoterol fumarate was approved in the United States. The combination was superior to its components alone, as well as tiotropium and a salmeterol-fluticasone combination. Increased risk of an asthma exacerba- tion was reported in children exposed to electronic nicotine delivery systems. A smart inhaler capable of recording inspiratory flow was approved in the United States. The use of as-needed budesonide-formoterol was reported to be superior to scheduled budesonide and as-needed ter- butaline for the treatment of adults with mild-to-moderate asthma. A survey among teens with asthma and their caregivers revealed a disagreement in the number of inhaled controller medi- cations the teen was taking. Treatment with inhaled hypertonic saline resulted in a decreased lung clearance index in infants and preschool children with cystic fibrosis. Surgical masks were well tolerated and significantly decreased the burden of aerosolized bacteria generated by coughing in adults with cystic fibrosis. Inhaled liposomal amikacin in addition to guideline- based therapy was reported to be superior to guideline-based therapy alone in achieving nega- tive sputum cultures in adult subjects with Mycobacterium avium complex pulmonary disease. -
