Salamol is a bronchodilator used to treat asthma and other breathing conditions. The active ingredient in Salamol is salbutamol, which works by relaxing the muscles in your airways, making it easier for you to breathe. This medication is suitable for adults and children who need relief from asthma symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness.
About Salamol
Dosage and usage
You should use Salamol exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. The typical dosage for adults is 100 to 200 micrograms (mcg) (1 to 2 puffs) as needed. The maximum dose is usually 800 mcg per day. For children, the dosage will be adjusted based on their age and weight. The effects of Salamol typically last for 4 to 6 hours. If you experience worsening symptoms or if your inhaler is not providing relief, seek medical advice promptly.
What Salamol contains
Each puff of Salamol inhaler contains 100 mcg of salbutamol (as sulfate). The inhaler also contains other components such as norflurane (HFA 134a) as a propellant. Make sure to check the package leaflet for a full list of ingredients.
Side effects
Common side effects of Salamol may include tremors, headache, and a fast heartbeat. Serious side effects that require immediate medical attention include chest pain, irregular heartbeat, and difficulty breathing. If you notice any signs of a severe allergic reaction such as rash, swelling, or difficulty swallowing, seek emergency help.
Precautions
Do not use Salamol if you are allergic to salbutamol or any other ingredients in the inhaler. This medication may not be suitable for individuals with certain heart conditions, so it's important to inform your doctor about your medical history. If you are taking other medications, especially beta-blockers or diuretics, consult your healthcare provider before using Salamol. Pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and children should use this medication under medical supervision.
