Drug Uses
The combination of Аlbuterol and Iprаtropium inhalation (Combіvent) are used to prevent bronchospasm in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who are also using other medicines to control their condition.
How to use
Use Combіvent as directed by your doctor.
Shake the inhaler vigorously for at least 10 seconds before each spray.
Breathe out fully. Put the mouthpiece into your mouth and close your lips. Keep your eyes closed to prevent spraying any medicine into your eyes. Breathe in slowly while pushing down on the canister. Hold your breath for 10 seconds, then breathe out slowly.
If you use more than one inhalation at a time, wait at least 2 minutes before using the second inhalation.
Drug Class and Mechanism
Аlbuterol and Iprаtropium (Combіvent) are bronchodilators that relax muscles in the airways and increase air flow to the lungs.

If you miss a dose of Combіvent, use it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not use 2 doses at once.
Storage
Store Combіvent between 39 and 86 degrees F (4 and 30 degrees C). Keep Combіvent out of the reach of children and away from pets.
