Here’s what I found:Changing the package is always confusing. I have one each of the one in the middle and the one on the right, which is newer. The difference between the two on the left is that there is a counter on the middle one that tells one how many life-saving poofs they've received. It's pretty helpful, compared to the old one that gave out unexpectedly, with scary results.
The oldest is at the left, my current is at the right. You spend a couple years carrying a distinctive-looking inhaler, you know what it looks like. You will notice that the one in the middle, apart from wear and tear, looks exactly like the one in the photo. BOOM!
Also, they were all Albuterol Sulfate. The red ones were branded ProAir HFA and the blue one Ventolin HFA. They have the exact same active ingredient, although apparently the ProAir has some ethanol in the inactive ingredients. Otherwise, it seems to be a case of one chemical given two different names by two different pharmaceutical firms, in this case, Teva and GlaxoSmithKline, respectively.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
