1. What Almeida is and what it is used for
Almeida is a medicine consisting of an association of two active substances for the therapy of obstructive (narrowing) diseases of the bronchi: salbutamol (beta-agonist) and ipratropium bromide (anticholinergic).
Almeida is indicated for the treatment of bronchospasm (contraction of the bronchial muscles) in adult patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (a disease that makes it difficult to empty the air from the lungs).
2. What you need to know before you take Almeida
Do not take Almeida
- if you are allergic to salbutamol and/or ipratropium bromide or to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6);
- if you are allergic to atropine or to active substances similar to atropine
- if you suffer from severe heart disease;
- if you suffer from glaucoma (eye disease of the optic nerve);
- if you suffer from prostatic hypertrophy (enlargement of the prostate gland);
- if you suffer from urinary retention (the inability of the urinary bladder to empty);
- if you suffer from intestinal obstruction (the arrest of the progression of the contents of the intestine).
Warnings and precautions
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking Almeida if:
- you have an obstruction of the vessels that carry blood to the heart (coronary artery disease);
- you have an irregular heartbeat;
- you have high blood pressure (hypertension);
- you suffer from a thyroid disease caused by its increased activity (hyperthyroidism);
- you are affected by pheochromocytoma, a tumor that produces chemicals that cause an increase in blood pressure and an acceleration of the heartbeat;
- you suffer from diabetes (a disease characterized by high levels of glucose in the blood due to reduced production of insulin by the pancreas);
- you suffer from cystic fibrosis. Treatment with Almeida may predispose you more to gastrointestinal disorders
Contact your doctor if you experience chest pain, severe difficulty breathing with increased wheezing or shortness of breath, visual disturbances such as eye pain, blurred vision, colored images, pupil dilation, or if you perceive a worsening of your health conditions if:
- you suffer from ischemic heart disease (a heart condition that occurs following a reduction in blood flow due to a narrowing of the coronary arteries),
- you suffer from tachyarrhythmia (irregular and accelerated heartbeat),
- you have severe heart failure (the inability of the heart to pump the adequate amount of blood necessary for the body's needs)
Therapy with Almeida may determine a decrease in potassium in the blood (hypokalemia), even severe, therefore your doctor will prescribe you periodic checks.
A condition known as lactic acidosis has been reported in association with high therapeutic doses of salbutamol, mainly in patients treated for acute bronchospasm (see sections 3 and 4). Increased plasma lactate levels can lead to shortness of breath and hyperventilation, even if your wheezing improves. If you think the medicine is no longer effective and that you need to use the nebulizer more than your doctor has recommended, contact your doctor immediately.
During treatment, immediate hypersensitivity reactions may occur with the appearance in rare cases of urticaria, angioedema, paradoxical bronchospasm (sudden involuntary contraction of the bronchi and difficulty breathing) and anaphylaxis.
Be careful not to spray the solution into your eyes, especially if you are at risk of glaucoma (an eye condition caused by increased intraocular pressure); when ipratropium bromide (one of the active ingredients of Almeida) has come into contact with the eye, isolated cases of eye complications (such as mydriasis, blurred vision, visual halos or colored images, increased intraocular pressure, angle-closure glaucoma, eye pain) have been reported.
Use in children and adolescents
Almeida is not indicated in children and adolescents (under 18 years of age).
For those who play sports
The use of the drug without therapeutic necessity constitutes doping and may still result in positive anti-doping tests.
Other medicines and Almeida
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or may take any other medicines, including those available without a prescription.
Tell your doctor if you are taking:
- beta-blockers, such as propranolol (medicines used for heart disease and to lower blood pressure);
- xanthine derivatives, e.g.: theophylline and aminophylline, (medicines that relax the bronchial muscles);
- corticosteroids (medicines used for the treatment of inflammatory states);
- diuretics (medicines that lower blood pressure).
- antidepressants (tricyclic antidepressants and monoamine oxidase inhibitors)
- anticholinergic medicines
- digoxin - medicine used for the treatment of heart failure
- if you are going to undergo surgery. Some anesthetics may affect the effects of Almeida. If you are going to undergo surgery, inform your doctor, dentist or anesthesiologist that you are being treated with Almeida
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
If you are pregnant, suspect or are planning a pregnancy, or if you are breastfeeding, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.
The doctor will prescribe Almeida to you only if necessary.

Almeida (the solution in the multi-dose bottle) contains para-hydroxybenzoates.They can cause allergic reactions (even delayed) and, exceptionally, bronchospasm (narrowing of the bronchi).
