Get Effective Delivery from Your Asthma Inhaler

Asthma is a serious health problem in the United States that affects approximately 26 million Americans, including 7.1 million children.

May is Asthma and Allergy Awareness month, and as the parents of many asthmatic children probably already know, there is no cure. But, the good news is asthma CAN be controlled with a few daily lifestyle changes -- and by making sure you are taking your asthma medication correctly.

This show includes important information for parents of asthmatics regarding a device that can help patients get the benefit from their metered-dose inhaler by helping to correctly deliver the medication. Join Tonya Winders, MBA, Chief Executive Officer of Allergy & Asthma Network Mothers of Asthmatics (AANMA) and Allergist, Dr. Jacqueline Eghrari-Sabet, Founder and Medical Director of Family Allergy & Asthma Care in Maryland, to learn why it’s important for patients to use their inhaler correctly with the help of a valved holding chamber, like AeroChamber Plus® Flow-Vu®, which is available by prescription only.

“Did you know that asthma inhalers can spray medication at 60 miles per hour? Valved holding chambers, such as AeroChamber Plus® Flow-Vu®, can help patients, especially children and the elderly, who may have difficulty with the coordination and control needed to use some asthma inhalers effectively. A visual indicator, which confirms correct inhalation, and the ability to clean the device in a dishwasher (up to 158°F), are features that are especially important for caregivers. In fact, AeroChamber Plus® Flow-Vu® was even awarded a top 10 innovations in technology award by Allergy & Asthma Network Mothers of Asthmatics (AANMA).” - Tonya Winders, Chief Executive Officer of Allergy & Asthma Network Mothers of Asthmatics (ANNMA)
