<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have any of the following conditions, you should consult a doctor before starting treatment with Combivent:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is important to avoid getting Combivent in your eyes. This is especially true for people who suffer from glaucoma. In rare cases, eye problems (pupillary enlargement, the pressure increase in the eye, glaucoma with a narrow ventricular angle, eye pain) have been reported when Combivent comes into contact with the eyes. Seek an ophthalmologist immediately if eye irritation and pain, visual phenomena and red, irritated eyes occur, as this may be a sign of acute glaucoma with a narrow ventricular angle.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is important to take good care of your oral hygiene as Combivent can cause dry mouth, which increases the risk of caries.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Combivent can give a positive result in doping tests.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A condition called lactic acidosis (increased acidity ( lactic acid ) in the blood) has been reported with high doses of salbutamol , especially in patients being treated for acute bronchospasm (spasm of the trachea) (see sections 3 and 4). An increase in lactate levels (lactic acid level) can lead to difficulty breathing and hyperventilation (rapid and shallow breathing) even if other symptoms such as wheezing improve. If you experience that your medicine does not work as well as usual and you need to use the nebulizer more than your doctor has prescribed, talk to a doctor immediately.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If the effect of Combivent worsens, contact a doctor immediately for further instruction. Repeated inhalation without effect means that another treatment is required.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines. The effect of Combivent can be enhanced by other medicines for respiratory diseases, certain antidepressants, and certain anesthetics. A certain type of blood pressure medication, so-called beta – receptor blockers, can counteract the effects of Combivent. Treatment with Combivent can lead to low blood potassium levels. Some other medicines, especially diuretics, may aggravate this effect.

You should keep this in mind when driving or using machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You are responsible for assessing whether you are fit to drive a motor vehicle or perform work that requires increased attention.
