HOW SHOULD I CLEAN IT?

A cleaning your inhaler should be cleaned once a week e respect the following aspects:

  • Use a clean, dry cloth to clean the nozzle and, if necessary, a brush.
  • Never use water or any other liquid for cleaning and, after each use, the inhaler should be stored in a dry place.

 

WHAT SPECIAL CARE SHOULD I TAKE?

  • After using the inhaler, you should always rinse your mouth out to prevent particles from settling. To do this, gargle well and do not swallow the water.
  • Do not swallow any capsules: they are intended to be inserted into the inhaler.
  • To remove the capsule from the blister and start the inhalation process, make sure your fingers are dry.
  • Do not use the capsules with any other inhaler and do not use the inhaler to take any other medication.
  • Do not try to "puncture" the capsule by repeatedly pressing the device's buttons. This could fragment the capsule and small fragments could pass through the filter and be inhaled.
  • The inhaler is for your exclusive use, so do not lend it to anyone else or use someone else's inhaler.
  • Don't throw away the inhaler: ask your pharmacist how to dispose of medicines and inhalers that are no longer needed.
