Ventolin Evohaler

Ventolin Evohaler is the brand name for the salbutamol inhaler. It's also known as the blue reliever inhaler.

The Ventolin inhaler is produced by GSK pharmaceuticals and comes packaged in a distinctive blue and white box.

Salbutamol works by widening the lung’s vessels, enabling a better oxygen supply and making it easier for asthma sufferers to breathe.

Ventolin is the branded version of Salbutamol, containing the exact same strength and formulation.

Salbutamol is the active ingredient in Ventolin inhalers, and is used to treat asthma.

It belongs to a group of medicines known as fast acting bronchodilators. Bronchodilators work quickly to keep airways open and reduce coughing, wheezing, breathlessness and chest tightness.

The active component in Salbutamol inhalers is the same as that in Ventolin inhalers. While Salbutamol inhalers are packaged up in many different brands, including Ventolin, they all function the same way.

Another brand name that uses Salbutamol is Salamol. These inhalers are considerably cheaper than Ventolin Evohalers, however patients don't rate their effectiveness as highly.

When you take a puff of your Ventolin inhaler, it takes effect almost immediately, making your breathing easier.

The Ventolin Evohaler continues to work for about three to five hours after use.
