Asthma Tip of the Month
May

… Shake, Shake, Shake …

Your inhaler should be shaken between each puff.  Not shaking the inhaler can reduce the amount of medicine delivered by up to 50%.

Never use multiple puffs into a spacer without shaking between each puff.  If more than one puff of an inhaler has been prescribed, you should do it like this:

Shake   …    Puff   …   Breathe
Shake   …    Puff   …   Breathe
