How to use the Pulvinal Inhaler

Instructions for use/handling Attentively read the following instructions for a correct use. If necessary, turn to your physician to get more detailed explanations. Clenil Pulvinal is an inhalation powder having as its active constituent beclometasone dipropionate micronised and mixed with a "carrier" and contained in a multidose dry powder inhaler. The delivery system needs no propellants and requires no coordination between actuation and inhalation. The dry powder inhaler must be kept in a dry place at room temperature. Do not remove the protecting cap until the moment of use.

  1. Opening: Unscrew the protecting cap. Check that mouthpiece is clean before use. If necessary, wipe the mouthpiece with a fiber-free paper tissue or soft cloth. Before twisting the inhaler, hold it upright and tap it gently against a hard surface, to level the powder in the metering chamber.
  2. Loading: Holding the inhaler upright, press the button on the mouthpiece with one hand and rotate the inhaler body anti-clockwise with the other hand (by a complete half turn), until it clicks, and the hole in the mouthpiece exactly fits the red mark (dose-loading position). While still holding the inhaler upright, rotate the inhaler body clockwise (another half a turn) until it clicks again, and the hole exactly fits the green mark (dose-delivery position).
  3. Administration: Breathe out deeply, not through the inhaler as far as is comfortable. Put the mouthpiece between your lips while holding the inhaler upright and breathe in through your mouth as quickly and as deeply as possible. Hold breath for a few seconds.
  4. Closure: Remove the inhaler from your mouth. Replace the protective cap again.
