Symptoms of overdose may include chest pain, fast or irregular heartbeat, headache, tremors, nervousness, weakness, and dizziness.

NOTES: Learn to use a peak flow meter, use it daily, and promptly report worsening asthma (such as readings in yellow or red range, or increased used of quick-relief inhalers). Do not share this medication with others.

MISSED DOSE: Ask your doctor about what action to take if you should miss a dose. Do not 'double-up' the dose.
