Airomir is a reliever inhaler, so you can take it on demand when you get symptoms. The medication is also used for several other lung-related issues; but that depends on your health background and whether your clinician thinks that it’s safe and suitable. In general, the Airomir autohaler kicks in within 5-10 minutes of inhalation. And depending on your asthma needs, you may need to use it more than once.
How does Airomir treat asthma?
The active ingredient in Airomir is Salbutamol sulfate. It’s a type of medication called a ‘bronchodilator’, and helps to open up the tubes that lead to your lungs. The Airomir autohaler relaxes these muscles, which in turn, make the airways expand, and allows you to breathe in and out. It won't prevent asthma - asthma is a condition that’s managed rather than cured - but it is used to help your symptoms when they flare up.

How to use Airomir Autohaler
Always follow the advice of your clinician. Typically, you’ll use the autohaler as follows:
open the plastic cap and shake it properly
hold the autohaler upright and push the lever so that it points upwards
make sure that the air vents at the base of the autohaler aren’t blocked
make sure to breathe out as much as possible and close your lips around the mouthpiece
take a full breath
hold for 10 seconds
slowly release your breath
If you’ve been advised to take more than one puff, wait 30-60 seconds before repeating the process.
Make sure you clean your inhaler regularly as instructed by our clinician. It’s important to keep them in good condition so that they don’t start to jam or get clogged up.
How to use Airomir Inhaler
Remove the cap and hold the inhaler upright with your thumb on the base and your first finger on the top
Shake the inhaler, vigorously, up and down
Test the inhaler before you use it for the first time, or if it hasn’t been used in the last five days
Breathe out gently, for as far as you comfortably can
Put the mouthpiece into your mouth, between your teeth, and close your lips around it
Begin inhaling deeply and slowly, press the canister down, and continue to inhale deeply
Take the inhaler out of your mouth, and hold your breath for ten seconds, or for as long as feels comfortable
Then breathe out slowly
If a second dose is needed, wait 30-60 seconds before repeating the process
What should I do if Airomir doesn’t work?
If Airomir fails to control your asthma attack you should seek urgent medical help.
Will I need to use another inhaler at the same time as Airomir?
It’s likely, yes. There are two types of inhalers used for asthma treatment: reliever inhalers and preventer inhalers. Airomir, a reliever inhaler, relieves sudden asthma symptoms and asthma attacks. So it works in real-time. Or in some cases, you may use it before any strenuous physical activity.
While a reliever inhaler is used to treat asthma, a preventer inhaler works a bit differently. It’s prescribed to be used continuously to help with your asthma symptoms. If you’re already using one of these, let our clinician know during your consultation.

Can you get Airomir Autohaler over the counter?
Answer:
Airomir autohaler is a prescription-based medicine in the UK, so you’ll need to have a consultation with a clinician in the first instance so that they can decide if it’s safe and suitable for you to use. Asthma treatment requires periodic check-ups, and ongoing monitoring from a clinician too.
If you take it without a clinician’s guidance, it can cause side effects. Some of the side effects of Airomir autohaler are shaking in the hands, leg cramps, chest pains, palpitations, headaches and nausea.
Is Airomir the same as Ventolin?
Answer:
Pretty much. They’re both branded asthma inhalers, so the packaging and the colour of the inhalers may differ, and they may not cost the same. But otherwise, they work in the same way in the body, and they contain the same active ingredient, salbutamol.
How is Airomir different from other inhalers?
Answer:
The Airomir autohaler is a salbutamol-based inhaler. It’s slightly different in taste if you’re more familiar with older formats of inhalers, and it’s not as harsh on your throat.
Are there different doses of Airomir?
Answer:
No. The Airomir autohaler is a fixed dose of 100 mcg (micrograms). But if you’re using the inhaler more than three times a week, or you’re not feeling comfortable after using it — drop our clinician a message. It may be that your asthma needs to be brought under tighter control.
