Aerochamber inhaler space device is an over-the-counter device that improves the use of your inhaler. Spacers ensure that your medicine reaches your lungs and limits the amount that may end up in the back of your throat. The device can help children and adults with breathing problems use their inhalers effectively. Aerochamber inhaler space device is an inhaler spacer. It works by creating space between your mouth and the medicine, breaking it into smaller droplets. The droplets can then move deeper into your lungs when you breathe in.

Remove the caps from the inhaler and spacer chamber. Shake the canister well. Insert the inhaler into the back end of the spacer chamber. If the spacer device comes with a mask, place it over your child's nose and mouth, ensuring a good seal. If it comes with a mouthpiece, ensure the tip goes between the teeth, with lips wrapped tightly around to make a good seal. Breathe out completely. Press firmly on the canister to release one puff of the medication into the spacer chamber. Hold the mask firmly in place while your child takes at least six breaths. If your child is using a spacer chamber with a mouthpiece, after inhaling the medication, they should hold their breath for 5 to 10 seconds and then breathe out slowly. Some spacers will make a horn-like sound if you breathe too quickly. This means you need to slow down on your next breath. Wait 1 minute. Repeat the steps for each puff of your dose. When the treatment is complete, remove the inhaler from the space chamber. Replace the caps on the asthma inhaler and spacer. If using this device with an inhaler that contains a steroid, wipe your child's face with soap and water to remove any medication. If possible, rinse their mouth with water. Adults can gargle and rinse their mouth with water or mouthwash. Clean the spacer chamber every other day. You may need to clean it only once a week if you do not use it often. Let it air dry, and store it in a clean, dry place when you're not using it. Keep out of the reach of children.
