Aerosolizer:

1. Pull off the aerolizer inhaler cover. Hold the base of
the aerolizer inhaler firmly and twist the mouthpiece in the
direction of the arrow to open. Push the buttons in to make sure
that the 4 pins are visible in the capsule well on each side.

2. Separate one blistered capsule by tearing at intersecting
perforations. Peel the paper backing from the blister and push the
capsule through the remaining foil.

3. Place the capsule in the capsule chamber in the base of the
aerolizer inhaler. Never place a capsule directly into the
mouthpiece.
Twist the mouthpiece back to the closed
position

4. With the mouthpiece of the aerolizer inhaler upright,
simultaneously press both buttons ONCE! You should
hear a click as the capsule is being pierced. Release the buttons.
If the buttons stick in the depressed position, grasp the wings on
the buttons to retract them before the inhalation step. Do not
depress the buttons a second time, since in rare cases this may
cause the capsule to shatter into small pieces.
5. Exhale fully. Do not exhale into the mouthpiece. Tilt your head
back slightly. Keeping the aerolizer inhaler horizontal, with the
blue buttons to the left and right (NOT UP AND DOWN), place the
mouthpiece in your mouth, closing your lips around the
mouthpiece.

6. Breathe in rapidly but steadily, as deeply as you can. As the
capsule spins around in the chamber dispensing the medication, you
will experience a sweet taste and hear a whirring noise. If you have
not heard the whirring noise, the capsule may be stuck. If this
occurs, open the Aerolizer Inhaler and loosen the capsule allowing
it to spin freely. DO NOT try to loosen the capsule by repeatedly
pressing the buttons.
