You will need to use this inhaler only ONCE A DAY. Each time you use it take TWO PUFFS.
How to care for your SPIRIVA RESPIMAT: Clean the mouthpiece including the metal part inside the mouthpiece with a damp cloth or tissue only, at least once a week.
Any minor discoloration in the mouthpiece does not affect your SPIRIVA RESPIMAT inhaler performance.
When to get a new SPIRIVA RESPIMAT: Your SPIRIVA RESPIMAT inhaler contains 60 puffs (30 doses) if used as indicated (two puffs/Once daily).
The dose indicator shows approximately how much medication is left.
When the dose indicator enters the red area of the scale you need to get a new prescription; there is approximately medication for 7 days left (14 puffs).
Once the dose indicator reaches the end of the red scale, your SPIRIVA RESPIMAT locks automatically - no more doses can be released. At this point, the clear base cannot be turned any further.
Three months after first use, the SPIRIVA RESPIMAT should be discarded even if it has not been used.
