Inhaler technique, from scratch

The patient in front of you has just been dispensed Salbutamol MDI (+ spacer). Counsel them in plain language; check their understanding before you finish. Their concerns are theirs to reveal, not yours to read.

Tip: check understanding before you finish. Ask the patient to repeat the plan back.

Drug page: find Salbutamol MDI (+ spacer) in the Drug Explorer to study its counselling points before or after a session.
