• The Flow-Vu Inhalation Indicator gives caregivers visual assurance of correct use and medication delivery.

• Fits all commonly prescribed metered dose inhalers (and soft mist inhalers).

How to use

1. Shake the inhaler and remove the inhaler and spacer caps.
2. Insert the inhaler into the backpiece of the chamber. Put the mouthpiece into mouth and close your lips around it to ensure an effective seal.
3. Exhale then press the inhaler once at the beginning of a slow inhalation. Inhale slowly and deeply through the chamber until a full breath has been taken. Hold your breath for 5-10 seconds before exhaling OR exhale and press the inhaler once at the beginning of a slow inhalation. Breathe in and out through the chamber for 2-3 breaths keeping lips sealed around the chamber mouthpiece.

Why would an adult use a chamber?

The majority of adults do not use their inhalers properly. Up to 80% of people have poor inhaler technique which can lead to asthma attacks and poor outcomes.

Chambers help by making it easier to inhale your medication and helping to ensure the inhaler medication is delivered to your lungs, where it is needed.
