The Inhaler is a pressurised aerosol (50 mcg\/actuation, propellant-driven, slow-deep inhalation). The Rotacaps are a dry-powder formulation (100 mcg\/cap) requiring a Rotahaler device and a fast, forceful inhalation.<\/p>\n<h3>How forcefully do I need to breathe in?<\/h3>\n<p>Strong and fast \u2014 peak inspiratory flow \u226530 L\/min (ideally 60). Children under 6 and patients in acute severe attacks may not generate this \u2014 use an MDI + spacer or nebuliser respule instead.<\/p>\n<h3>Why didn&#8217;t I taste anything?<\/h3>\n<p>Pure levosalbutamol powder is nearly tasteless \u2014 normal. Verify the rotacap is empty after inhalation.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I use Levolin Rotacaps with a spacer?<\/h3>\n<p>No \u2014 DPIs cannot be used with spacers. Spacers are only for pressurised metered-dose inhalers.<\/p>\n<h3>How many rotacaps a day is safe?<\/h3>\n<p>Up to 4 rotacaps (400 mcg) typically. Going above this regularly = poorly-controlled asthma \u2192 step up controller.<\/p>\n<h3>What if a rotacap gets damp?<\/h3>\n<p>Moisture clumps the powder and reduces effective dose. Keep in original blister with desiccant; never store in the bathroom.<\/p>\n<h3>Are Levolin Rotacaps safe for children?<\/h3>\n<p>From age 6 with confirmed inspiratory flow. Below 6, use MDI + spacer or nebuliser.<\/p>\n<h3>How does levosalbutamol compare to salbutamol DPI?<\/h3>\n<p>Same mechanism. Levosalbutamol uses half the milligram dose for similar bronchodilation, with potentially less tremor and tachycardia in sensitive patients.<\/p>\n<h3>How should I clean the Rotahaler?<\/h3>\n<p>Wipe the mouthpiece with a dry tissue weekly. Do not wash with water \u2014 moisture damages the device and clumps any residual powder.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#fff3f3;border-left:4px solid #d9534f;padding:14px 18px;margin:24px 0;border-radius:4px;font-size:13px;\"><strong>\u0399\u03b1\u03c4\u03c1\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae \u03b1\u03c0\u03bf\u03c0\u03bf\u03af\u03b7\u03c3\u03b7 \u03b5\u03c5\u03b8\u03cd\u03bd\u03b7\u03c2:<\/strong> \u0391\u03c5\u03c4\u03ae \u03b7 \u03c3\u03b5\u03bb\u03af\u03b4\u03b1 \u03b5\u03af\u03bd\u03b1\u03b9 \u03b5\u03ba\u03c0\u03b1\u03b9\u03b4\u03b5\u03c5\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae \u03ba\u03b1\u03b9 \u03b4\u03b5\u03bd \u03b1\u03bd\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03b1\u03b8\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03ac \u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u03b5\u03c0\u03b1\u03b3\u03b3\u03b5\u03bb\u03bc\u03b1\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae \u03b9\u03b1\u03c4\u03c1\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae \u03c3\u03c5\u03bc\u03b2\u03bf\u03c5\u03bb\u03ae. \u03a3\u03c5\u03bc\u03b2\u03bf\u03c5\u03bb\u03b5\u03c5\u03c4\u03b5\u03af\u03c4\u03b5 \u03c0\u03ac\u03bd\u03c4\u03b1 \u03ad\u03bd\u03b1\u03bd \u03ba\u03b1\u03c4\u03b1\u03bb\u03bb\u03ae\u03bb\u03c9\u03c2 \u03b5\u03be\u03bf\u03c0\u03bb\u03b9\u03c3\u03bc\u03ad\u03bd\u03bf \u03b5\u03c0\u03b1\u03b3\u03b3\u03b5\u03bb\u03bc\u03b1\u03c4\u03af\u03b1 \u03c5\u03b3\u03b5\u03af\u03b1\u03c2 \u03c0\u03c1\u03b9\u03bd \u03be\u03b5\u03ba\u03b9\u03bd\u03ae\u03c3\u03b5\u03c4\u03b5, \u03c3\u03c4\u03b1\u03bc\u03b1\u03c4\u03ae\u03c3\u03b5\u03c4\u03b5 \u03ae \u03b1\u03bb\u03bb\u03ac\u03be\u03b5\u03c4\u03b5 \u03bf\u03c0\u03bf\u03b9\u03bf\u03bd\u03b4\u03ae\u03c0\u03bf\u03c4\u03b5 \u03b5\u03b9\u03c3\u03c0\u03bd\u03b5\u03c5\u03c3\u03c4\u03ae\u03c1\u03b1 \u03ae \u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03c0\u03bd\u03b5\u03c5\u03c3\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae \u03c6\u03b1\u03c1\u03bc\u03b1\u03ba\u03b5\u03c5\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae \u03b1\u03b3\u03c9\u03b3\u03ae, \u03b5\u03b9\u03b4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ac \u03b1\u03bd \u03ad\u03c7\u03b5\u03c4\u03b5 \u03ac\u03bb\u03bb\u03b5\u03c2 \u03b9\u03b1\u03c4\u03c1\u03b9\u03ba\u03ad\u03c2 \u03c0\u03b1\u03b8\u03ae\u03c3\u03b5\u03b9\u03c2, \u03c0\u03b1\u03af\u03c1\u03bd\u03b5\u03c4\u03b5 \u03ac\u03bb\u03bb\u03b5\u03c2 \u03c3\u03c5\u03bd\u03c4\u03b1\u03b3\u03ad\u03c2, \u03b5\u03af\u03c3\u03c4\u03b5 \u03ad\u03b3\u03ba\u03c5\u03bf\u03c2 \u03ae \u03b8\u03b7\u03bb\u03ac\u03b6\u03b5\u03c4\u03b5, \u03ae \u03b5\u03af\u03c3\u03c4\u03b5 \u03ac\u03bd\u03c9 \u03c4\u03c9\u03bd 65 \u03b5\u03c4\u03ce\u03bd.<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<h5>\u2705 Rapid respiratory relief<br \/>\n\u2705 Convenient rotacap format<br \/>\n\u2705 Targeted medication delivery<br \/>\n\u2705 Effective COPD management<\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"color: #999999;\">contains Levosalbutamol<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":54582,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[3681,3141,3223],"product_tag":[3754,3710],"class_list":{"0":"post-54581","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-asthma-copd-treatment","7":"product_cat-category-overview","8":"product_cat-chronic-conditions","9":"product_tag-levolin","10":"product_tag-levosalbutamol","12":"first","13":"outofstock","14":"shipping-taxable","15":"purchasable","16":"product-type-variable","17":"has-default-attributes"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/54581","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=54581"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/54582"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=54581"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=54581"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=54581"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=54581"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
