17.2 Preparation for Use and Priming
Instruct patients that priming STRIVERDI RESPIMAT is essential to ensure appropriate content of the medication in each actuation.
When using the unit for the first time, the STRIVERDI RESPIMAT cartridge is inserted into the STRIVERDI RESPIMAT inhaler
and the unit is primed. STRIVERDI RESPIMAT patients are to actuate the inhaler toward the ground until an aerosol cloud is visible
and then repeat the process three more times. The unit is then considered primed and ready for use. If not used for more than 3 days,
patients are to actuate the inhaler once to prepare the inhaler for use. If not used for more than 21 days, patients are to actuate the
inhaler until an aerosol cloud is visible and then repeat the process three more times to prepare the inhaler for use.
