What Is Arformoterol Tartrate Used For? (Cont.)

Arformoterol Tartrate Use in Children

Arformoterol tartrate is not approved for use in children (which makes sense, since COPD is almost always a disease of elderly people). Talk with your child's healthcare provider about the benefits and risks of using arformoterol tartrate in children.
 

Off-Label Arformoterol Tartrate Uses

On occasion, your healthcare provider may recommend arformoterol tartrate for treating something other than COPD. This is called an "off-label" use. At this time, using arformoterol tartrate to treat asthma or other breathing problems other than COPD is considered an off-label use.
