Frequently asked questions
How many puffs of Asthalin inhaler can I take in a day?
The usual dose is one or two puffs when needed, up to every 4 to 6 hours. If you are reaching for it more than a few times a week, or it stops working within hours, your asthma is not controlled and you need to see your doctor rather than taking more puffs.
Asthalin vs Seroflo – what is the difference?
Asthalin is a reliever: salbutamol opens the airways within minutes and lasts about 4 to 6 hours. Seroflo is a preventer containing a long-acting bronchodilator plus a steroid, used every day to stop attacks. Most people with asthma need both, and the reliever should not replace the preventer.
Is Asthalin inhaler safe in pregnancy?
Yes, salbutamol inhalers are considered safe and are commonly used in pregnancy. Poorly controlled asthma is riskier for the baby than the inhaler. Keep your doctor informed.
Is the salbutamol inhaler a steroid?
No. Salbutamol is a bronchodilator that relaxes the airway muscles. Steroid inhalers like budesonide or fluticasone are separate preventer medicines.
