Ventolin (Albuterol) HFA Inhaler Recall

GlaxoSmithKline has issued a voluntary recall for some Ventolin (albuterol) HFA inhalers as a precaution.  Due to leaking, the inhaler may contain fewer doses than is indicated on the dose counter.

The three lots affected are:
  • 6ZP0003     
  • 6ZP9944
  • 6ZP9848
For specific information about what to do if your child's inhaler is part of the recall, click on this link from the AAFA (Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America).

If your child has this brand inhaler at school, I will check the lot number and notify you if it is part of the recall.
