Hey i got 6 inhalers of salbutomal. Each inhaler has 200 dosages of 100mcg of salbutomal. I've read that one needs at least 10-12mg a day of the salbutomal pills. What would be the equivalent dosage for the inhalers? (How many puffs of the inhaler would give be good compared to the tabs?)
1000mcg=1mg
so you'd need 10puff per mg or 100-120 puffs per day, you don't have enough to do anything really
x2.... no point.. you dont have enough.Quote:

You will screw yourself up something fierce. Do some more searching and find out what others in your position are doing if you're that committed to using an inhaler vs. just going out and buying Ventorlin tabs. I know one guy on the EDITED board in the UK who swears by his inhaler - so check out his posts on the subject.
BTW, if you're not using the inhaler for asthma, then forget about it altogether and just get the extended release tabs.
The inhaler is too weak to get the same dosage and effects so dont even bother.Quote:
