What is Aerobid Used For? Aerobid is a corticosteroid which acts in the lungs to reduce inflammation. It is used in the treatment of chronic asthma.

How To Use Aerobid
Aerobid is inhaled into the lungs using a special inhaler device. To use the inhaler, shake the canister for a minute. Take a drink of water to moisten the throat. Place the inhaler mouthpiece into your mouth over the tongue. Close your lips tightly around the mouthpiece. Tilt your head back slightly. Depress the inhaler while taking a slow deep breath for 5 seconds. Hold your breath for 10 seconds to enable Aerobid to penetrate the lungs. Slowly breathe out. If two inhalations are prescribed, wait at least one minute between inhalations. If using other inhalers, wait several minutes between the use of the inhalers and use this one (the corticosteroid) last. To prevent dry mouth and hoarseness, rinse your mouth after each use. Do not swallow the rinse solution. It is recommended you use a spacer/holding chamber. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about this. Aerobid is best used at even intervals throughout the day and night. It is usually used once in the morning and evening. Do not increase your dose, use this more frequently or stop using Aerobid without first consulting your doctor.

Aerobid Side Effects
Dry or irritated throat, hoarseness or coughing may occur as your body adjusts to the medication. If any of these effects continue or become bothersome, inform your doctor. Notify your doctor if you develop: rash, sore throat, mouth sores, swelling of the face, wheezing, breathing trouble, vision changes. Contact your doctor if you experience any of the following signs of low steroid levels: unusual weakness, weight loss, nausea, vomiting, fainting, dizziness. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Aerobid Precautions
Before you use Aerobid, tell your doctor your medical history including: all illnesses and infections, recent exposures to contagious diseases (e.g., chickenpox), glaucoma, cataracts, allergies (especially drug allergies). If within the past 12 months you have switched from an oral corticosteroid (e.g., prednisone) to this inhaler, or if you had been using this product in higher-than-usual doses and suddenly stopped using it, your body may not produce enough natural steroids. You may need to start taking additional corticosteroids, especially if your body is stressed due to major infection, surgery or injury. Consult your doctor. If you cough up mucus that has thickened or changed color from clear white to yellow, green, or gray, contact your doctor; these changes may be signs of an infection. Children and teenagers should be monitored for proper growth patterns while using any corticosteroid medicine. Aerobid should be used only when clearly needed during pregnancy. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. Aerobid may be excreted into breast milk. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.

Aerobid Drug Interactions
Tell your doctor of any over-the-counter or prescription medication you may take especially of: oral corticosteroids, other asthma medication. Do not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist approval.

Aerobid Overdose
If overdose is suspected, contact your local poison control center or emergency room immediately.
