What happens if I miss a dose of Proair HFA?

Honor Society of Nursing (STTI)

If you miss a dose of your Proair HFA, take the next dose as soon as you remember and as prescribed. If it's already time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose. Do not take an additional dose the next time you use your inhaler. An overdose of albuterol can be fatal, so it's important to use your inhaler only as prescribed.
