Axamol 2.5 mg Respules 2.5 mL

Axamol 2.5 mg Respules 2.5 mL is a salbutamol/albuterol medicine used to help relieve and prevent symptoms of asthma and other reversible breathing problems. Each 2.5 mL respule contains 2.5 mg of salbutamol (albuterol), a short-acting bronchodilator, in a single-dose unit meant for nebulized use. It works by relaxing the muscles around the airways so air can move in and out more easily. This product is used for quick symptom relief, not as a long-term controller medicine.

How it works: Salbutamol/albuterol is a short-acting beta2-agonist that tells the muscles around the airways to relax. In this respule form, the medicine is turned into a mist by a nebulizer so it can reach the lungs and work quickly.

Axamol 2.5 mg Respules 2.5 mL is a standard single-dose nebulizer strength, commonly used when a doctor wants a ready-to-use 2.5 mg dose for inhalation. It may suit people who need an oral inhalation treatment that is easy to administer with a nebulizer, including children or adults who cannot use a handheld inhaler well. Because it is a full 2.5 mg respule, a clinician may choose this strength when a lower dose is not appropriate or when a measured nebulized dose is preferred.

• Quick relief of wheezing
• Relief of shortness of breath from bronchospasm
• Prevention of exercise-induced bronchospasm when prescribed
• Supportive treatment for reversible airway tightening in asthma

• Use Axamol 2.5 mg Respules 2.5 mL only with a nebulizer as directed by your doctor; do not swallow the respule.
• Empty the full 2.5 mL respule into the nebulizer cup unless your prescriber tells you otherwise.
• Breathe the mist in slowly and evenly through the mouthpiece or mask until the nebulizer stops producing mist.
• Use this medicine for the exact timing your doctor recommends; some people use it only when symptoms occur, while others use it before triggers or exercise.
• If you use it before exercise, follow your prescriber’s timing instructions rather than guessing.
• Do not mix it with other medicines in the nebulizer unless a healthcare professional specifically tells you to.

Each Axamol 2.5 mg Respules 2.5 mL unit provides 2.5 mg of salbutamol/albuterol for one nebulized dose. How often it is used depends on the patient’s age, symptoms, and medical plan; only a doctor should decide the schedule and the maximum daily amount. If you need it more often than prescribed, seek medical advice promptly because that can mean your asthma is worsening.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Salbutamol / Albuterol may include:

• Shakiness or tremor
• Nervousness or feeling jittery
• Fast heartbeat or palpitations
• Headache
• Muscle cramps
• Throat irritation or cough during inhalation

• Use caution if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, an irregular heartbeat, hyperthyroidism, or diabetes.
• Tell your doctor if you have had low potassium before or take medicines that can lower potassium.
• Do not use more often or in larger amounts than prescribed, especially with this 2.5 mg strength.
• If symptoms are getting worse or the medicine is needed more often, get medical help; this can be a sign of uncontrolled asthma.
• Let your clinician know about seizure disorders, because albuterol can sometimes increase nervous-system stimulation.
• Alcohol can add to dizziness or palpitations in some people, so use caution if you drink.
• Do not drive or do tasks that need alertness if you feel shaky, dizzy, or your heartbeat feels fast after use.

• Other bronchodilators or sympathomimetic medicines may increase side effects such as fast heartbeat and tremor.
• Beta-blockers can reduce the effect of albuterol/salbutamol and may trigger breathing problems.
• Diuretics can increase the risk of low potassium when used with albuterol/salbutamol.
• Certain antidepressants, especially MAO inhibitors or tricyclic antidepressants, can increase cardiovascular side effects.
