Medicine Overview of Ventosol 2mg/5ml Syrup
Introduction
Ventosol belongs to a group of medicines called fast-acting bronchodilators or “relievers”. It’s used to treat the symptoms of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) such as coughing, wheezing and feeling short of breath.
You can take Ventosol with or without food. The dose will depend on your condition and how your respond to the medicine. Try to take it at the same time each day. It's important to keep taking this medicine until your doctor tells you not to. Use this medicine regularly to get the most benefit from it even if you feel well.
Ventosol is generally safe and effective but some common side effects include tremor, headache. fast heart rate, and muscle cramps. These side effects aren't often dangerous and they should gradually improve as your body gets used to this medicine. There are other, rarer, side effects and you should call your doctor straight away if you get chest pain, a very bad headache or very bad dizziness.
Before using Ventosoll, you should tell your doctor if you have high blood pressure, an overactive thyroid gland, a history of heart problems, diabetes or low levels of potassium in your blood to make sure it's safe. Also make sure your doctor knows if you're pregnant or breast-feeding before taking this medicine. Because this medicine can make you feel dizzy or shaky, don't drive, cycle or use tools or machinery until you feel better. And you shouldn't smoke. Smoking causes damage to your lungs and will make your condition worse.

Repeat until you have inhaled the number of puffs as suggested by the doctor.Afterwards, rinse your mouth thoroughly with water and spit it out.
How Ventosol works
Ventosol is a bronchodilator. It works by relaxing the muscles in the airways and widens airways. This makes breathing easier.
What if you forget to take Ventosol?
If you miss a dose of Ventosol, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.
Quick Tips
- Ventosol is used to relieve symptoms of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) such as coughing, wheezing and breathlessness.
- The inhalers are called 'reliever' inhalers as they give you quick relief from breathing problems.
- Always keep the inhaler upright during loading of the dose and administration steps.
- If you feel a slightly sweet tasting powder in your mouth after inhaling, you have received the dose and the active substance has reached your lungs.
- Always replace the inhaler cap after you have used the inhaler.
- Gargle with warm water after each inhalation to avoid any fungal infections in your mouth and throat.
- Dry mouth may occur as a side effect. Frequent mouth rinses, good oral hygiene, increased water intake and sugarless candy may help.
- If you need to use Ventosol more than 3 times a week, it could be a sign that your breathing problem is not well controlled. Talk to your doctor about it.
- Inform your doctor if you have a history of heart diseases or if you experience heart racing, headache, or chest pain.

Salbutamol preparation should not be used for threatened abortion during the first or second trimesters of pregnancy.
Mode of Action
Salbutamol is a direct-acting sympathomimetic with beta-adrenergic activity and selective action on ?2 receptors, producing bronchodilating effects. It also decreases uterine contractility.

Urticaria, angioedema, rash, bronchospasm, and oropharyngeal edema (rare)
Potentially Fatal: Potentially serious hypokalaemia after large doses.
Interaction
Diuretics, corticosteroids and xanthines may augment hypokalaemia. CV effects potentiated by MAOIs, TCAs, sympathomimetics. Increases absorption of sulfamethoxazole when used together. May markedly increase heart rate and BP when used with atomoxetine. Reduces serum levels of digoxin. Hypokalaemia induced by salbutamol increases the risk of digitalis toxicity. BP should be closely monitored if linezolid is used concurrently with salbutamol.
