Dosage
For COPD: Recommended doses: 2 inhalations twice daily. The maximum dose is two inhalations twice daily. Patients should be advised to take the inhaler every day even when asymptomatic. If symptoms arise in the period between doses, an inhaled, short acting beta-2 agonist should be used for immediate relief.

Administration
Following simple steps can help to use Inhaler effectively (According to “National Asthma Guidelines for Medical Practitioners” published by Asthma Association):
- Take off the cap.
- Shake the inhaler (at least six times) vigorously before each use.
- If the inhaler is new or if it has not been used for a week or more, shake it well and release one puff into the air to make sure that it works.
- Breathe out as full as comfortably possible & hold the inhaler upright.
- Place the actuator into mouth between the teeth and close lips around the mouthpiece.
- While breathing deeply and slowly through the mouth, press down firmly add fully on the canister to release medicine.
- Remove the inhaler from mouth. Continue holding breath for at least for 10 seconds or as long as it is comfortable.
- If doctor has prescribed more than one inhalation per treatment, wait 1 minute between puffs (inhalations). Shake the inhaler well and repeat steps 4 to 7.
- After use, replace the cap on the mouthpiece. After each treatment, rinse mouth with water.
- Check your technique in front of a mirror from time to time, if you see a white mist during the inhalation, you may not have closed your lips properly around mouthpiece, or you may not be breathing in as you press the can. This indicates failure of technique. If this happens, repeat the procedure from step 4 carefully.
Instructions for Cleaning Inhaler: Clean your Inhaler at least once a week. Remove canister and rinse the plastic actuator and cap in warm water but do not put the metal canister into water. Dry the actuator and cap thoroughly and gently replace the metal canister into the actuator with a twisting motion. Put the cap on the mouthpiece.
