Turbuhaler label

Just curious to see if anyone else has problems with their Symbicort Turbuhalers label wearing off.
Mine had completely worn away after 3 days of having it in my pocket at work. I tried googling of they always do that, but nothing came up and I'm curious to find out if they all do it or if mine just has a bad label. The actual plastic label is still on it, but the inks completely gone.

  1. Hi. Thank you for posting here. I read your post several days ago, although was hoping for someone who uses the Turbuhaler to respond, although I see no one has. I use Symbicort, although mine comes as a metered-dose inhaler rather than the Turbuhaler. Your concern may be a good one to bring up to your pharmacist, who may be able to reprint the label for you. What do you think? John. asthma.net community moderator.

    1. Ok, thanks John.
      I mentioned it to the pharmacist but it's the pharmaceutical company's label, not something they can reprint. They said that they would let the company know about the problem though so that they can look into it.

      1. Thank you for the update. Do keep us posted on what you learn so we can stay informed too. John. asthma.net community moderator
