I always used non-propellant inhalers when I was a kid (in Europe). I believe they are called Diskus-type. Why do you need propellants?

- jrockway 11y agoI don't think albuterol is available in that form. Here's a study where a company that makes generics is testing that, I think: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01857323 https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01857323. It's from 2013. The drugs in Diskus form are typically steroids. Steroids are to prevent attacks, albuterol is to stop attacks that have already started.
- semi-extrinsic 11y agoNo, I had both albuterol (ventolin) and steroids (flutide) in diskus form. Edit: link to picture: http://bloggfiler.no/tcmn.blogg.no/images/441858-8-1265834547754.jpg http://bloggfiler.no/tcmn.blogg.no/images/441858-8-126583454...
