Inhaler technique.

Most inhalers are used imperfectly. Five minutes with a pharmacist fixes that.

Studies consistently show most people use their inhaler less effectively than they could. Bring yours in — the pharmacist will watch your technique and correct it on the spot. It's free, and it can change how well your medication works.

Good to know

  • Bring the inhaler you actually use, so the advice matches your device.

  • It's free, and five minutes is usually all it takes.

  • Worth a check even after years of use — technique drifts without anyone noticing.
