Ipratropium Solution

Generic Name: Ipratropium Inhalation Solution (i-pra-TROE-pee-um)
Brand Name: Generic only. No brands available.

Ipratropium Solution is used for:

Treating and preventing bronchospasm (wheezing or difficulty breathing) associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) including chronic bronchitis and emphysema. It can be used alone or in combination with other medicines. It may also be used to treat certain conditions as determined by your doctor.

Ipratropium Solution is an anticholinergic. It works by relaxing and opening bronchial tubes (air passages in the lungs), making it easier to breathe.

Do NOT use Ipratropium Solution if:

you are allergic to any ingredient in Ipratropium Solution
you are allergic to soya lecithin or related foods, such as soybean and peanut

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Ipratropium Solution:

Some medical conditions may interact with Ipratropium Solution. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

if you are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding
if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement
if you have allergies to medicines or other substances
if you have glaucoma; enlargement of the prostrate;urinary blockage or retention

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Ipratropium Solution. Because little, if any, of Ipratropium Solution is absorbed into the blood, the risk of it interacting with another medicine is low.

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Ipratropium Solution may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.

How to use Ipratropium Solution:

Use Ipratropium Solution as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

Ipratropium Solution comes with an additional patient leaflet. Read it carefully and reread it each time you get Ipratropium Solution refilled.
If Ipratropium Solution contains particles, is discolored, or if the vial is cracked or damaged in any way, do not use it.
Twist open the top of 1 unit-dose vial and squeeze the contents into the nebulizer reservoir.
Connect the nebulizer reservoir to the mouthpiece or face mask.
Connect the nebulizer to the compressor.
Sit in a comfortable, upright position; place the mouthpiece in your mouth or put on the face mask and turn on the compressor. If a face mask is used, take care to avoid leakage around the mask to prevent direct contact with the eyes.
Breathe as calmly, deeply, and evenly as possible until no more mist is formed in the nebulizer chamber (about 5 to 15 minutes). At this point, the treatment is finished.
Clean the nebulizer (see manufacturer"s instructions).
If prescribed by your doctor, Ipratropium Solution can be mixed in the nebulizer with albuterol or metaproterenol if used within 1 hour but should not be mixed with other medicines.
Use Ipratropium Solution consistently as prescribed during the course of therapy.
If you miss a dose of Ipratropium Solution, use it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not use 2 doses at once.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Ipratropium Solution.

Important safety information:

Ipratropium Solution may cause drowsiness. Do not drive, operate machinery, or do anything else that could be dangerous until you know how you react to Ipratropium Solution. Using Ipratropium Solution alone, with certain other medicines, or with alcohol may lessen your ability to drive or to perform other potentially dangerous tasks.
Ipratropium Solution may cause dizziness. Alcohol, hot weather, exercise, and fever can increase these effects. To prevent them, sit or stand up slowly, especially in the morning. Also, sit or lie down at the first sign of dizziness.
Avoid contact with eyes. Flush with water immediately if eye contact occurs. Temporary blurring of vision or precipitation or worsening of narrow-angle glaucoma or eye pain may result if the solution comes into direct contact with the eyes. Use of a nebulizer with mouthpiece rather than face mask may be preferable to reduce the likelihood of the nebulizer solution reaching the eyes.
Ipratropium Solution is not recommended for use in CHILDREN under the age of 12 years. Safety and effectiveness in this age group have not been confirmed.
PREGNANCY and BREAST-FEEDING: If you plan on becoming pregnant, discuss with your doctor the benefits and risks of using Ipratropium Solution during pregnancy. It is unknown if Ipratropium Solution is excreted in breast milk. If you are or will be breast-feeding while you are using Ipratropium Solution, check with your doctor or pharmacist to discuss the risks to your baby.
