    Use of inhalers is not as easy as it may seem. Make sure your physician provides detailed instructions and demonstrates how to inhale the aerosol so that the medicine ends up in the lungs and not in the back of the throat.

    Never try to use the inhaler when you have food, beverage, chewing gum or anything else in your mouth.
