The problem
The inhaler may deliver doses of salbutamol that are inconsistent with that stated on the label. Details Respigen (salbutamol) 100 microgram inhalation aerosol. With a batch number 9F282A and expiry date 05/2012. The batch number can be found either on the base of the box or by removing the silver can from inside the blue plastic cover. Respigen inhalation aerosol is a blue, reliever-type inhaler, containing salbutamol, used to control the symptoms of asthma. What to do Return the inhaler to a pharmacy as soon as possible for a free replacement. Continue to use the inhaler if you need it prior to obtaining a replacement. Follow your asthma management plan if symptoms are not controlled, which may include increasing the dose or frequency of use of the inhaler. Contact a health care professional if you have any concerns about the management of your asthma. For more information on this recall, call 0800 579 811. |
