If you use an asthma inhaler in the US, things are about to change starting January 1.
The new inhalers are green because they will no longer use chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). By the end of the year, all albuterol inhalers sold will contain hydrofluoroalkane. The ozone will like us better.
But, you know what usually happens when a drug changes…
No more generic. Boo.
