About PROVENTIL® HFA

Just as fast as traditional PROVENTIL®. Just as effective. Just in an earth-friendly inhaler.

PROVENTIL® HFA is a lot like your current inhaler, but it's CFC-free.

The medicine you trust. PROVENTIL® HFA uses the same medicine as traditional PROVENTIL® (albuterol). It contains the medicine that doctors have prescribed for nearly 25 years.

The relief you need. PROVENTIL® HFA provides the same rapid relief as traditional PROVENTIL®.

In an inhaler that's earth-friendly. PROVENTIL® HFA was the first HFA inhaler. HFA inhalers are safe for the environment.

Relief you can count on. Doctors have already written over 18 million earth-friendly prescriptions for PROVENTIL® HFA.

A consistent dose each time. PROVENTIL® HFA delivers a consistent dose from your first spray to your 200th.

Ready when you are. You don't have to reprime PROVENTIL® HFA for up to 2 weeks after previous dose. But remember to wash the mouthpiece at least once a week to keep your PROVENTIL® HFA inhaler working properly.

PROVENTIL® HFA Inhalation Aerosol is indicated in adults and children 4 years of age and older for the treatment or prevention of bronchospasm with reversible obstructive airway disease and for the prevention of exercise-induced bronchospasm.

Albuterol (CFC) Inhalation Aerosol is indicated in patients 12 years of age and older for the treatment or prevention of bronchospasm with reversible obstructive airway disease and for the prevention of exercise-induced bronchospasm.

Important Safety Information
If your symptoms become significantly worse when you use PROVENTIL® HFA or Albuterol (CFC) Inhalation Aerosols, contact your doctor immediately because this reaction can be life threatening. Worsening symptoms often occur with the first use of a new canister.

What to tell your doctor before using PROVENTIL® HFA or Albuterol (CFC) Inhalation Aerosols: If you have a heart, blood, or seizure disorder, high blood pressure, diabetes, or an overactive thyroid, be sure to tell your doctor. Also make sure your doctor knows all medications you are taking — especially heart medications and drugs that treat depression — because some medications may interfere with how well your asthma medications work.

Side effects with PROVENTIL® HFA and Albuterol (CFC) Inhalation Aerosols are similar: In a clinical study, side effects associated with PROVENTIL® HFA and Albuterol (CFC) Inhalation Aerosols were similar and included infection of the ears, nose, and throat, runny nose, nausea, tremor, and nervousness. Rapid heart beat, vomiting, chest pain, and palpitation occurred more frequently with PROVENTIL® HFA.

Available by prescription only.
