Yeah...those things he couldn't describe.
*(CNSNews.com)* - *The only over-the-counter asthma inhaler sold in the
United States soon will be banned from store shelves because of
environmental concerns, and replacement medications may cost more, the U.S.
Food and Drug administration acknowledged*.
The FDA
announced<http://www.fda.gov/ForConsumers/ConsumerUpdates/ucm247196.htm>on
Wednesday that Primatene Mist (epinephrine) will be discontinued by
the
end of the year, as part of an international agreement to phase out
chlorofluorocarbons and other ozone-depleting substances.
*Primatene Mist, approved by the FDA for the temporary relief of occasional
symptoms of mild asthma, uses chlorofluorocarbons as a propellant*.
Many manufacturers have changed their inhalers to replace CFCs with an
"environmentally friendly" propellant called hydrofluoroalkane (HFA), but
right now, there is no HFA version of the Primatene Mist inhaler.
“There are many other safe and effective medications to treat the symptoms
of asthma,” said Dr. Badrul Chowdhury, the director of FDA’s Division of
Pulmonary, Allergy, and Rheumatology Products.
The FDA is advising Primatene Mist users – including those who have never
had their asthma officially diagnosed -- to see a doctor soon to get another
medication.
“If you have breathing problems but have not been diagnosed by a health care
professional, it’s important to see one. Not all breathing problems are
asthma, so you need to get an accurate diagnosis and the proper medicine,”
Chowdhury said.
*According to the FDA news release, "Replacement medicines for Primatene
Mist may cost more."*
