Research Notes on Alupent Dosage
The dosage of Alupent your physician prescribes will be specific to your medical history, amongst other factors. Typically, the starting dosage of Alupent for the treatment of an asthma attack is two to three sprays, as needed. This dosage can be administered as often as every three to four hours, but it is advised that you not exceed more than 12 inhalations in a 24 hour period. This medication can be used to both treat and prevent an asthma attack.1
Fast Facts:
