A member asked:
Can you dishwash an albuterol sulfate hfa inhaler? i know the plastic could melt but i have very bad allergies that only the dishwasher can stop and the inhaler is contaminated. also what is the most i can do with the medication canister itself? ty?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The best way to decontaminate the HFA inhaler housing is to soak in a solution of 1 tablespoon of bleach in 1 quart of water. If there is obvious dirt or buildup, use a new toothbrush to brush the housing clean. the canister can also be immersed in the bleach solution. Do not put either in the dishwasher since it will melt and deform and will not be useable.
