Salmeterol is designed to prevent an asthma attack; it does not relieve or reverse symptoms.Salmeterol has a slow onset of action; therefore,it should not be used as a rescue drug.The drug must be shaken well because it has a tendency to separate easily.Poor technique on the client's part allows the drug to escape through the nose and mouth.
