Clinical Trials

Salbutamol has been extensively studied in numerous clinical trials demonstrating its efficacy and safety for the treatment of asthma and COPD.

Lab Monitoring

• Monitor serum potassium levels, especially in severe asthma exacerbations or when used with other potassium-lowering drugs.

Doctor Notes

• Educate patients on proper nebulizer technique and the difference between reliever and controller medications.
• Assess for overuse; increased use may indicate worsening asthma control.
• Monitor for cardiovascular side effects, especially in patients with pre-existing heart conditions.

Patient Guidelines

• Use exactly as prescribed by your doctor.
• Do not exceed the recommended dose or frequency of administration.
• Ensure proper nebulizer technique for effective delivery.
• Seek medical attention immediately if your breathing worsens or if the medicine becomes less effective.

Missed Dose Advice

If a dose is missed, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is almost time for your next dose. Do not double the dose to catch up.

Driving Precautions

Salbutamol may cause tremor or dizziness in some patients. Patients should be advised to exercise caution when driving or operating machinery.

Lifestyle Advice

• Avoid known asthma triggers like dust, pollen, and pet dander.
• If you smoke, quitting can significantly improve your respiratory health.
• Maintain a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet.
