Airsupra Dosage

Recommended Dosage and Administration

The recommended dosage of AIRSUPRA is albuterol 180 mcg and budesonide 160 mcg (administered as 2 actuations of AIRSUPRA [albuterol/budesonide 90 mcg/80 mcg]) as needed for asthma symptoms by oral inhalation. Do not take more than 6 doses (12 inhalations) in a 24-hour period [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4)].

Priming Before Use

•

Priming AIRSUPRA is essential to ensure appropriate drug content in each actuation. Prime AIRSUPRA before using for the first time. To prime AIRSUPRA, release 4 sprays into the air away from the face, shaking well before each spray.

•

AIRSUPRA must be re-primed when the inhaler has not been used for more than 7 days, is dropped, or after cleaning. To re-prime AIRSUPRA, release 2 sprays into the air away from the face, shaking well before each spray.

Dose Counter

The canister has an attached dose indicator (also known as puff indicator) which indicates how many inhalations (puffs) remain. The dose indicator pointer will move after every actuation. The pointer will show the number of inhalations remaining in the canister. When nearing the end of the usable inhalations, the color behind the number in the dose indicator display window changes to yellow. AIRSUPRA should be discarded when the pointer reaches zero.
