How To Use Serevent
SEREVENT: Make sure you understand how to use the inhaler properly. Shake the canister well before using. Place the canister near your mouth and exhale. Depress the spray as you inhale deeply. Hold your breath for a few seconds to allow the drug to be absorbed. If more than one inhalation is prescribed, wait at least one full minute between inhalations. Rinse your mouth after using to help prevent dryness and relieve throat irritation. Use SEREVENT exactly as prescribed. Do not use it more frequently without your doctor's approval. SEREVENT should not be used more frequently than every 12 hours. Excessive use may result in a decrease in drug's effectiveness and an increase in its side effects. You should use SEREVENT 30 to 60 minutes before exercise when using it to prevent exercise-induced asthma. If you need to use 4 or more puffs daily or more than 1 inhaler every 8 weeks of a different, shorter-acting inhaler, tell your doctor or pharmacist. If symptoms do not improve or if they worsen after using this medication, call your doctor immediately.
