Proventil HFA (Cont.)

Proventil HFA: Storage Methods

Proventil HFA should be stored at room temperature, away from moisture and heat. You should have a Proventil HFA inhaler available at all times, especially if you have severe asthma attacks. To clean the inhaler, remove the canister from the plastic inhaler and run warm water through the plastic inhaler for 30 seconds. Let the inhaler air dry (do not use cloth or paper towels to dry the inhaler, as this may leave particles that may be inhaled). Never put the canister in water.
 
Keep Proventil HFA and all medications out of the reach of children.
 

Proventil HFA: What Should I Do If I Miss a Dose?

If you do not take your Proventil HFA as scheduled, take your missed dose as soon as you remember, but do not take your doses more closely together than every four hours unless absolutely necessary to control an attack.
