Expert Advice

Take bambuterol tablets shortly before bedtime.
Caution should be exercised in patients with a history of:
- Diabetes
- Thyroid disease
- High blood pressure
- Heart disease
- Liver or kidney problems
- Family history of glaucoma (increased pressure in the eye)
You should continue taking the medication after starting treatment with bambuterol, even if asthma symptoms diminish.
If you have moderate to severely impaired renal function (GFR < 50 ml/min), it is recommended that the starting dose of bambuterol be halved.
If you have severe asthma, regular blood tests are necessary to monitor potassium levels in your blood.
If you are suffering from diabetes, additional medications for blood glucose control may be required due to the hypoglycemic effect of bambuterol.
Consult your doctor as soon as possible if this medicine does not relieve wheezing or chest tightness as effectively or for as long as usual, or if you need to use it more frequently than usual.
If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, seek advice from your doctor before taking this medicine.
