Examples of Metered Dose Inhalers (MDI) are listed below.

Important: that when the veterinarian writes a prescription for a MDI, it should be an “EVOHALER” (as only this design will fit the AeroDawg).

An MDI should be made available only after a diagnostic workup with a veterinarian. A MDI may be available from a veterinarian, or a veterinarian may direct a client to purchase one from a pharmacy. A prescription is required.


Examples of suitable MDIs available in Singapore:

Flixotide 125 Evohaler delivers 125 mcg of fluticasone per dose (120 doses)

–  Long term management, to avoid or reduce dose of systemic steroidal medication

Flixotide 125

Ventolin 100 Evohaler delivers 100 mcg  salbutamol (albuterol) per dose (200 doses)

– Typically for rapid relief of more severe episodes, usually in conjunction with other therapeutics

Seretide 25/125 Evohaler delivers 25 mcg of salmeterol and 125 mcg of fluticasone per dose (120 doses); Variations of Seretide available
