Prescribing Information for MD Turbo®

Intended Use

MD Turbo® is intended to assist with the delivery of aerosolized medications when used in conjunction with commercialized pressurized metered dose inhalers (pMDI). MD Turbo® is also intended for use by patients to count the number of doses remaining in their pMDI.

Cautions

  • Press the counter button only when loading a new inhaler. Pressing the button at any other time may cause the counter to show the wrong number of doses remaining.
  • Be sure to use proper inhaler technique (provided with your inhaler or by your doctor).
  • If you do not hear a click and see that the loading lever is still pushed in after Step 4 of the Using The MD Turbo section in the Instructions for Use, repeat the step making sure that your lips are sealed tightly around the mouthpiece until the device clicks or the use the priming/manual override button to deliver the medication (see Using the Priming/Manual Override Button section in the Instructions for Use). If you don’t hear a click and medication doesn’t come out and the counter doesn’t count down, make sure the inhaler is loaded correctly (see Loading the MD Turbo section in the Instructions for Use).
  • If the inhaler needs to be rinsed, it must be removed from the sliding tray to prevent water from filling the inside of MD Turbo. Rinsing an inhaler while it is inside MD Turbo may affect the proper function of the device and invalidate the product warranty.
  • Federal law restricts MD Turbo to sale by or on the order of a physician or licensed healthcare professional.

Notes

MD Turbo should be used with one inhaler at a time, until the inhaler is empty. Switching inhalers will affect the accuracy of the dose counter.
