Precautions

This medication is a maintenance therapy that is inhaled once daily to dilate the airways and should not be used as an emergency medicine to relieve sudden bronchospasm. Rarely, there may be paradoxical bronchospasm with this medication, where the airways may constrict instead; if such symptoms occur, use should be stopped immediately and medical attention should be sought. This medication should not be used in asthma patients, as its safety and efficacy in asthma are not established. Patients with narrow-angle glaucoma or urinary retention should take special caution when using this medication, and care should be taken to avoid contact of the powder with the eyes. People allergic to this medication or its components, asthma patients, and those with lactose intolerance or certain genetic metabolic disorders should not take this medication. Patients with heart disease, convulsive disorders, thyroid problems, hypokalemia, diabetes, glaucoma, urinary retention, or severe kidney disease should use this medication with greater caution. Common side effects may include headaches, cough, and rhinitis. Rarely, various adverse reactions such as heart abnormalities, eye problems, or digestive disturbances have been reported. Since this medication can affect the cardiovascular system, symptoms such as increased heart rate or elevated blood pressure may occur; if these symptoms manifest, consult a doctor. Potassium levels in the blood may drop, so patients with cardiovascular issues should be cautious. Diabetes patients should closely monitor blood sugar variations. It is advisable not to use this medication with other long-acting beta2-agonists or anticholinergic drugs. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should only use this medication after consulting a physician, and it should not be used in children under 18 years of age. In cases of overdose, symptoms such as increased heart rate, tremors, headaches, and vomiting may occur, and serious cases may require hospital treatment. This medication should be inhaled using the dedicated inhaler Hanmi Haler, and the capsule should not be swallowed. Be sure to learn the correct use of the inhaler and use it properly, and after use, keep the inhaler clean and be sure to remove the capsule.
