Bibecfo dose counter1,6
On the back of the Bibecfo inhaler, there is a dose counter to help patients keep track of the amount of medicine left in the canister.
A new inhaler contains 120 doses. The dose counter counts down by one each time a puff of medicine is released, meaning patients can always be sure of exactly how many doses they have left.
Patients should request a replacement inhaler when there are 20 doses remaining.
When the dose counter displays 0, patients should stop using the inhaler. This is because any medicine left in the canister may not be a full dose.
