Aerodynamic particle size analysis of a metered dose inhalation containing 100μg salbutamol sulphate in a single dose
The product being tested is a salamol CFC-free Easi-Breathe inhaler Each actuation of the inhaler delivers Salbutamol Sulphate Ph Eur equivalent to Salbutamol 100 micrograms into the mouthpiece of the adapter. Salbutamol is a selective β2-adrenoceptor agonist. At therapeutic doses it acts on the β2-adrenoceptors of bronchial smooth muscle providing short acting (4-6 hour) bronchodilatation with a fast onset (within 5 minutes) in reversible airways obstruction. Salamol is indicated in the management of bronchial asthma, …showed first 75 words of 1725 total…
