For Asthma, Maintenance "I have been on albuterol for years. NEVER have I had a nasty aftertaste, like the inhaler from Perrigo. Since using this Perrigo albuterol inhaler, my tongue felt raw, the aftertaste when I exhale is nauseating. Not to mention, the inhaler itself is bulky, difficult to open, and seal tight, so I can't wash it. I feel this is a dangerous product. I ordered a new inhaler and had to wait for a few days. I began to realize I hadn't been getting relief when I finally got the new inhaler. 2 puffs and I'm really breathing well again. Perrigo needs to be investigated."

ProAir HFA (albuterol) for Asthma, acute "I, like so many others here, have had a very bad experience with ProAir. I have bad allergies, and so I will regularly need my inhaler when working. I used Ventolin for years, and it was great, no complaints, but, like so many others, my insurance decided to be greedy and switched me over to ProAir. It tastes awful, first of all, always makes me gag, and second, it causes my attacks to get worse! Supposedly my insurance covers it, but it is more than 3x that of any inhaler I've ever gotten! I've only had it for a couple of months, but I will be very strongly requesting to my doctor and pharmacy that I go back to Ventolin very soon."

ProAir RespiClick (albuterol) for Asthma, acute "I previously used the old ProAir, the traditional design, and it worked great. Could jog twice as far without getting short of breath, mow grass, etc. I was at the doctor and asked about a refill, and she told me about this amazing new design that you don't have to squeeze. The idea sounded great, but in reality, it doesn't work. After I use it, shortness of breath is slightly decreased, but the chest tightness/pain remains and starts to take on a different character, and it also makes me extremely nauseous. Yes, it is convenient, but people who need a rescue inhaler would rather it work and provide relief than to have one less button to press."
