Maxair Asthma Inhalers Are Being Recalled. A Asthma Inhaler used by asthma patients is being recalled because it may stick and fail to provide the medication.
The recall of Maxair press-and-breathe inhalers was reported Wednesday on the Food and Drug Administration (news – web sites)’s Internet page.
3M Offered To Replace The Inhalers
The manufacturer, 3M Pharmaceuticals, offered to replace the inhalers with Maxair Autohaler, a breath-activated version, at no charge. The Maxair Autohaler is not affected by the recall.
However, patients will need to ask their physician for a new prescription for the switchover.
