Common Inhaler Mistakes

 9.Breathe Out First
Air takes up space in your lungs. If your lungs aren’t as empty as possible before you use your inhaler, you might not get as much medicine into them. Instead: Breathe out as much air as you can just before you breathe in a dose to get medicine deep into the many small pathways in your lungs.

10.Forget to Check for Debris
Lint or trash can get caught in the opening of your inhaler, and you could shoot it into your lungs if you don’t clear it out. Instead: Look inside the opening of the inhaler before each use. Put the cap over the mouthpiece when you’re not using it to help keep stuff out.
