• Position the one-handed oper-
ation aid so that the fastening
element locks in place over the
metered dose inhaler.
To do this, you may have to
push the one-handed opera-
tion aid farther forwards or
backwards.
3.3 Performing the inhalation
CAUTION
Before the patient starts inhaling, ensure that all parts are
firmly connected to each other. Otherwise, insufficient
dosage may be delivered.
CAUTION
Children younger than 18 months should inhale four to six
times; children older than 18 months should inhale deeply
two to four times. Otherwise, insufficient dosage may be de-
livered.
CAUTION
If you use a mask, make sure that the mask completely cov-
ers both corners of the mouth and the nose. Otherwise, the
treatment can be less effective due to escaping aerosol,
because of underdosage, for example. For possible side ef-
fects of escaping aerosol, please read the instructions for
use of the medication in question.
For adults, one breath is enough to inhale the medication from
the VORTEX.
