Salbutamol (Blue inhaler)

Patients with asthma are reminded: Overusing blue inhalers is linked with an increased risk of severe asthma attack.

  • Use your preventer (anti-inflammatory) inhaler daily as prescribed
  • Don’t rely on the blue inhaler alone
  • Speak to your doctor if you need your blue inhaler more than twice a week

Seek urgent medical help if your symptoms are not relieved.
