    Application features

    Pregnant
    Treatment with formoterol should only be considered if it is necessary to control bronchial asthma, and if there is no other safe alternative, given that the expected benefit to the mother outweighs the risk to the fetus.
    Children
    Children under the age of 6 years should not be prescribed Formoterol Easyhaler, since the experience of using the preparation  in this group of patients is insufficient.
    Drivers
    In case of dizziness, tremors, convulsions during treatment, you should not drive vehicles or work with complex mechanisms.

    Overdose

    Symptoms Little clinical experience has been accumulated in the treatment of overdose. Overdose is most likely accompanied by symptoms that are usually observed with an overdose of β2-agonists: tremor, headache, palpitations. In some cases, symptoms such as tachycardia, hyperglycemia, hypokalemia, prolongation of the QTc interval, arrhythmia, nausea and vomiting have been reported.
    Treatment. Supportive and symptomatic treatment is indicated. Serious cases require hospitalization.
    The advisability of using cardioselective beta-blockers can be considered, but very carefully, since the use of beta-adrenolytics can provoke bronchospasm. Serum potassium levels should be monitored.

    Side effects

    The most common reported side effects of β2-agonist treatment, such as tremors and palpitations, are predominantly mild and resolve within a few days of treatment.

    Interaction

    Simultaneous use with macrolides requires caution, since their effect on the cardiovascular system may increase.
    Concomitant use of other sympathomimetic preparations, such as other <> β2-agonists or ephedrine, can enhance both the desirable and undesirable effects of Formoterol Easyhaler. Therefore, dose titration may be necessary.
