Committee Recommendations (1)

Salbutamol Easyhaler or Ventolin Accuhaler are the locally preferred dry powder devices

Salamol MDI is the locally preferred salbutamol MDI device and should be used with a spacer device.
It has a lower carbon footprint than the large volume MDIs such as Ventolin.

Branded prescribing of inhaler devices is recommended.
