Inhaler Users' Biggest Mistakes

[@Ash-yw6kz]

The worst part is when you are coughing so bad and have to hold your breathe for some seconds after using it : )

I have gotten blisters in my throat because of the asthma cough. I have a few now. It's yucky and painful. The weather causes me asthma. It's been raining lately. Also, I wake up with a sore back because of the coughing at night it causes muscle strain.

Point was people are not even making an effort to take as deep a breath as possible. Some just spray and that's it. Your suppose to hold your breath for a bit after spraying as well which people don't do.

I was told by a doctor - the inhaler itself gives you 40% success, using the spacer with it and its 95% success. Just breath the inhaler gas in through the spacer slooowly, and breath out slowly for 10 times, and that should last you about 3 hours.

[@jrnuestmybae7180]

Thanks! These comments save my time!

[@sulla1537]

Step 1: Shake inhaler (If you can flick it like a tin of chew, even better) Step 2: Exhale as far as possible Step 3: At the bottom of your exhale, push the med canister down and simultaneously inhale as deeply as possible Step 4: Hold breath for 20 seconds Step 5: Slowly exhale with a final deep inhale after the exhale Step 6: Enjoy your new lungs Also, that new attachment for inhalers may seem all fine and dandy but for the price you’re better off getting a nebulizer and paying a 6th of the cost for an on the go inhaler.

[@albundy5064]

Actually my friend Step One is take a deep breath inhale and exhale all the way two times on your third inhale and exhale exhaling all the breath out of your lungs after you shaking your device then you squirt it as you inhale and take it in a can and hold it as long as you can then you exhale completely a couple of times getting all the gas and whatnot out and like I read earlier the fella said you know to rinse your mouth take a drink of water it sounds like a good idea food for thought thought you should know the first step breathe in breathe out breathe in breathe out reason with your device

[@theripleyeffect5203]

I would add rinsing your mouth and gargling with water after exhaling the medication. Drink a sip of water after your mouth is clear and this protects the vocal cords from powder and or steroids.

[@ashleyervin602]

I have sensonal asthma. (When the air gets cold I do not breath deep enough causing asmatic problems and even fluid build up) At first I cannot breath deep enough to get all the meds. Here is what I do. First puff breath in and out three times and then take the medicine......wait five minutes. During the five minutes I concentrate on breathing deeply. Then I take the second puff in which I am able to breath deeply and hold my breath. When I exhale no medicine is lost. When you exhale there should be no material leaving the mouth.

[@dorasmith7875]

You have common asthma that's aggravated by cold air, and probably by exercise as well. Who told you you have something with a fancy name? And how you breathe makes no difference - though tying a scarf over your face would!

Hey- chronic brittle asthmatic here, it’s the worst asthma you can get and I have been hospitalised for 3 years.. the reason why people don’t use an inhaler properly is because we can’t breathe properly in the first place.. we take the inhaler because we cannot breathe properly… you cant expect us to take a massive breathe when wheezy, especially people like me, I only have one working lung and it’s very hard to take a deep breathe, I recommend a spacer because it is so much easier to use and it’s way more efficient, I always use the spacer and you should too

Are you sure you haven't mixed up your rescue and maintenance inhalers? The symptoms you describe sound like steroid overdose. That's the active ingredient in most maintenance medications.

[@Think_Up]

Our kids asthma specialist had us put a humidifier inside their room which we later learned contributed to mold and dust mite growth, making their asthma chronic. He also prescribed FLOVENT, a steroid inhaler at a dose 4x what it should be for our tiny daughter and it shut down her adrenal system, she nearly died in ICU before an endocrinologist figured out the cause and treatment (cortisone helped her recover over 6 months until she was ok again). This doctor should be behind bars, but he's out doing it to thousands of other kids with the full support and profit of pharma. This system is not helping us. We got our kids off of the inhalers, removed the humidifier and they've been fine since. I'm not diagnosing other's conditions or situations but I'm a parent who nearly lost my child due to gross misuse of these drugs on my daughter.

[@annaoddi2257]

First shake the inhaler second take a deep breath then exhale make sure that there's nothing in the inhaler so you don't breath a foreign object put the inhaler in your mouth and press it then take a deep breath slowly hold it for 10 seconds then exhale slowly and don't use it more than 8 times a days if not needed that's all.

[@geloyello15yearsago14]

Bro especially in your sleep it's very hard and that's why I'm always late for school because I stay up at night always having to use my inhaler

[@Asteroidpine]

It’s because no one is using THE DAMM TUBE

[@KatouMiwa]

What about cleaning ? I know people who don’t even clean it xD I do it every week :) didn’t know ppl forgot to shake doe . Gg on video that wasn’t really anything . God bless everyone

[@jessicah3450]

Just remove the canister from the mouthpiece and rinse the mouthpiece with warm water. Run water through the part that the canister sits in to remove dried crusted medication, and the part that your mouth touches well. Then lay it to dry instead of towel drying it, so the lint from the towel doesn't get on it. You can use some mild soap on the part you put on your mouth too, just be sure to rinse well! Yeah I can't believe people don't wash them. Do they want the device clogged and to give them a lung infection 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@hmmgames6852]

There’s a very specific reason I looked up if I could overdose on an inhaler

[@trounbyfire]

I remember in high school so I told me that oh you don't have to hold your breath when you take those. You don't see people doing that in football games and I'm thinking like the doctor literally told me I had to hold my breath when I take it. But okay

[@lakiaparker8349]

I have an inhaler

[@MasterSixx-n7i]

I always tell people that you hit your inhaler like a blunt. You gotta spray it in your mouth. Inhale, then hold it for about 5 to 8 seconds. Now I don't smoke pot anymore bc I'm asthmatic and it's not good for asthmatics. Tho it gives people the best idea on how to get the most out of the medicine. Remember when having an asthma attack. Your lungs don't work as well as they do when not having a asthma attack. So you gotta hold that breath and give your lungs time to absorb that medicine.

What did they find that woman in a bar??

They once told me I’d outgrown asthma. Turned out they lied.

Ah . We have a 2.5 year old who needs this and we have no way of knowing whether he gets this right

[@thomasveerman5762]

Bro I feel like I am spinning and feel being pulled to the ground after taking 2 hits of the inhaler at school and it’s been 10 hours

[@phillipswearingin5773]

Can’t inhale the spray, keep coughing it out too fast. Just can’t get a good inhale.

[@jessicah3450]

Ask doctor or pharmacist for a spacer

[@baklash1762]

Do you push and hold the trigger down while inhaling or do you push and release it while inhaling? Or does it even matter?

[@rickyburton4642]

They are too hard to hold! They need a thumb notch so your thumb doesn’t slip off when you try to squeeze it!

[@WizardClipAudio]

‘One patient wasn’t taking the cap off the inhaler.’ 🤦‍♂️🙎‍♂️

[@doreensingapore5087]

Does anyone notice they keep walking in circles about how this is a problem without actually not showing how it should be taken properly?

[@richardfriedel2248]

Slow determined sniffs deal with asthma by acupressure. Steer clear of spray which weakens lungs.

I’d like this much better if she called her Sue-ma-thi like how it’s supposed to be rather than su-maaa-te

i have C O P D..my inhaler just gos to my throat and it burns. and gives me a dry mouth..ive tried all ways to take it..but it just does not go into the lungs.

[@ssnowyxz3408]

honestly yeah an inhaler is good but tbh it’s better if you don’t use it even if u need breath because ur body counts on that inhaler so bassically relying for it and is not good for ur body

[@danielledewitt1]

If we don’t use it when we can’t breathe then well we will be dead.

[@ssnowyxz3408]

@@danielledewitt1 yeah but we should limit it and find out wat triggers it to limit it but fair point u have

[@danielledewitt1]

@@ssnowyxz3408 Ok so next time I can’t breathe I won’t take it then I’ll die and you’ll be happy. I rarely need my blue inhaler. Having a cold triggers mine.

Albuterol gives me the WORST NIGHTMARES, HEADACHES, BODY ACHES, AND SLEEP DISTURBANCE! DO NOT TAKE IT UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. I USED IT ONCE A NIGHT, AND HAD THESE SIDE EFFECTS

[@Charisma_ed]

It's kinda weird that u use albuterol on a daily basis. Albuterol should be a rescue drug for acute use instead of for maintenance.

Crazy how vaping nicotine can teach you how to properly hit an inhaler😂

[@dankmemes2733]

We can't breath slowly because its because our airways are tighting up and we can't take long breathes

[@Johnny_PUBGM-x1o]

You can get high if you take a whole Bunch in a short time frame but it’s not a good high it’s where you get severe anxiety and you might ask how do you know? I got high off one on accident most scary moment in my life
