[Text on Screen: There are different models of nebulizers available. Know how to use your nebulizer before you take YUPELRI. Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s Instructions for Use.]
Before you start your first treatment, watch this video and remember to read the Instructions for Use in the Full Prescribing Information.
YUPELRI is used only in a standard jet nebulizer with a mouthpiece connected to an air compressor. Make sure you know how to use your nebulizer before you use it to breathe in YUPELRI or other medicines. Do not mix YUPELRI with other medicines in your nebulizer. Do not stop using YUPELRI even if you are feeling better, unless instructed by your healthcare provider. YUPELRI comes in a vial that is sealed in a foil pouch. Do not open the sealed pouch until you are ready to use a dose of YUPELRI. Use your YUPELRI right away after opening.
[Text on Screen: Do not open sealed pouch until you are ready to use it.]
Ready to start? First, open the sealed foil pouch along the seam and take out the vial of YUPELRI. Carefully twist off the top of the vial. and squeeze all the medicine from the vial into the nebulizer cup, also called a reservoir.
Press firmly on nebulizer lid to close. Then connect the mouthpiece to the nebulizer reservoir with the expiratory valve facing up like this.
Now you're ready to connect the nebulizer to the air compressor. Firmly insert one end of the tubing into the compressor and the other end of the tubing into the bottom of the nebulizer cup.
Sit in an upright position. Place the mouthpiece in your mouth and turn the compressor on to begin your treatment. Now breathe as calmly, deeply, and evenly as possible until no more mist is seen in the nebulizer reservoir.
Your treatment will take about eight minutes. When you do not see any mist in the nebulizer, your treatment is finished. Turn the compressor off.
[Text on Screen: Cleaning the nebulizer is easy.]
Cleaning the nebulizer is easy. Just wash the nebulizer parts with warm water and liquid dish soap, then rinse. Some pieces can also be placed on the top rack of the dishwasher. Just follow the manufacturer's instructions. That's it. You're done for the day.
Now I'm ready to go on with my day. We hope this video made it easy to understand how to use YUPELRI with your nebulizer. With a once-daily treatment option, you may enjoy fewer interruptions in your day. Speak to your doctor to see if YUPELRI is right for you.
