Full Prescribing Info
Caution For Usage
Instruction for correct use of Vannair pMDI: On actuation of the Vannair pMDI, a volume of the suspension is expelled from the canister at high velocity. When the patient inhales through the mouthpiece at the same time as actuating the inhaler, the substance will follow the inspired air into the airways.
NOTE: It is important to instruct the patient to: Carefully read the Instruction for correct use of Vannair pMDI.
Shake the inhaler well prior to each use to mix its contents properly.
Prime the inhaler by actuating it twice into the air when the inhaler is new, if it has not been used for more than one week or if it has been dropped.
Place the mouthpiece into the mouth. While breathing in slowly and deeply, press the inhaler firmly to release the medication. Continue to breathe in and hold the breath for approximately 10 seconds or as long as is comfortable. Shake the inhaler again and repeat this step for the second inhalation.
Rinse the mouth with water after inhaling the prescribed dose to minimise the risk of oropharyngeal thrush.
Clean the mouthpiece of the inhaler regularly, at least once a week with a clean dry cloth. Do not put the inhaler into water.
Special precautions for disposal: Always be sure to dispose of Vannair pMDI responsibly, since some of the medicine may remain inside it. The canister in Vannair pMDI contains a pressurized liquid. The canister should not be broken, punctured or burnt, even when it seems empty.
Incompatibilities: Incompatibilities were either not assessed or not identified as part of the registration of this medicine.
