Overview

Ventolin 2.5 mg/2.5ml Nebules is supplied as a healthcare product, with Salbutamol Sulfate 2.5mg/2.5ml. It is supplied in pack sizes of 20s and 5s.

No prescription is required for this product, as it is a non-prescription medicine. This page is limited to product, safety and handling information.

If you would like guidance before buying, you can speak to a doctor or pharmacist through an online consultation on DoctorOnCall. Orders are dispensed by a registered pharmacist and delivered to your address.

Directions for Use

Use Ventolin Nebules only with a suitable nebuliser device as directed by your doctor or respiratory therapist, opening one nebule immediately before use and emptying its entire contents into the nebuliser chamber, diluting with saline if instructed. Breathe the mist in through a mouthpiece or face mask until the solution is fully nebulised, and do not mix Ventolin Nebules with other medications in the nebuliser chamber unless specifically advised by your doctor.

Dosage

The typical adult and adolescent dose is 2.5mg to 5mg (one to two nebules) given via nebuliser, repeated up to 4 times a day as directed by the prescribing doctor. Dosing for children and for acute severe attacks should only be determined by a doctor, and this medicine requires a valid prescription obtained through an online consultation via DoctorOnCall before it can be dispensed.

Shelf Life

Ventolin 2.5 mg/2.5ml Nebules typically have a shelf life of around 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored correctly and unopened; always check the expiry date printed on the packaging and individual nebule before use, and protect nebules from light by keeping them in their foil pouch until required.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C, protected from light, and do not refrigerate or freeze. Keep unopened nebules in their protective foil pouch until ready for use, and keep out of reach of children.
