Respiratory Tract
What does Respiratory Tract care include?
Respiratory Tract is a practical care area covering medicines used for different lung and airway-related needs. It may include long-term inhaled therapies for obstructive airway disease, bronchodilator treatments, and medicines used as part of treatment for respiratory tuberculosis. These are different therapeutic roles, so a medicine for one respiratory condition should not be assumed to be appropriate for another.
How do the product types in this category differ?
The key differences are the active ingredient, intended clinical role, and dosage form. Inhaled combination therapies are commonly encountered in ongoing management plans for certain obstructive airway conditions, while oral bronchodilator and antitubercular medicines serve different purposes. A prescriber can help determine whether an inhalation powder or tablet, and which active ingredient, fits an established diagnosis and treatment plan.
Which Respiratory Tract products do we list?
We list three products in this care area. The comparison below is designed to help you identify the listed form, strengths, and starting price; it does not mean that these medicines are direct substitutes for one another.
| Product | Active ingredient | Form | Available strengths | Price from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Advair Diskus | Fluticasone and salmeterol | Inhalation powder | 100 mcg+50 mcg, 250 mcg+50 mcg, 500 mcg+50 mcg | $59.00 |
| Myambutol | Ethambutol | Tablet | 200 mg, 400 mg, 600 mg, 800 mg | $66.00 |
| Ventolin | Albuterol | Tablet | 2 mg, 4 mg | $65.00 |
Package options vary by product and strength. Advair Diskus is listed in packs of 1 to 5 inhalers depending on strength. Myambutol and Ventolin are listed in tablet packages ranging from 30 to 360 tablets, depending on the selected strength.
What should U.S. customers know before selecting a product?
In the United States, Advair Diskus is an FDA-approved prescription medicine, and ethambutol requires a prescription. For the listed Ventolin 2 mg and 4 mg tablet presentations, a current U.S. FDA or DailyMed listing under the AccuNeb name cannot be confirmed; the specific manufacturer, strength, and dosage form should be verified with a qualified healthcare professional. Prescription classification and U.S. market status should be considered for each individual product rather than assigned to the whole Respiratory Tract category.
How do shipping and storage considerations apply?
We can dispatch these products to U.S. customers using Express shipping, with tracking and an estimated 4-7 days, or Standard shipping, estimated at 14-21 days. Express shipping costs $29.99 and Standard shipping costs $14.99. Free shipping is available for either method when its respective checkout threshold is reached. We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Bitcoin, and USDT.
Storage requirements matter when planning an order. The listed products are stored at 68°F to 77°F: Advair Diskus should remain dry and in its moisture-protective foil pouch before first use, while Myambutol and Ventolin tablets should be protected from moisture and light in tightly closed containers. Our packaging helps protect the order during delivery. Once it arrives, collect it promptly and follow the storage directions on each product.
