What is Maxair Autohaler


Maxair Autohaler is a unique rescue inhaler that is prescribed by a healthcare professional to stop or prevent symptoms of asthma or other lung disease that causes bronchospasm. It contains medicine called pirbuterol in a special delivery device called the Autohaler.

The Autohaler device is designed to be very easy and comfortable to use. Each and every time you use it, Autohaler releases just the right amount of medication in a soft puff that's easy to inhale. Unlike other rescue inhalers, you never need to use a spacer.

Maxair Autohaler is one of several different kinds of medicines prescribed to help manage asthma. Always take medication as directed by your healthcare provider and tell them if you have any problem using your inhaler.
