As an allergy specialist, I understand that giving inhaler medicine to young children can be challenging. Using a Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) with a spacer and face mask is the best way to ensure effective delivery of medicine for children under 4 years or those who cannot use a mouthpiece.
You can watch my full video tutorial here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOiRDPicadM
How to Use the MDI with Spacer and Face Mask
1. Shake the inhaler vigorously 5-6 times before every use.
2. Attach the inhaler to the spacer, making sure both are oriented correctly (facing upwards).
3. Place the face mask snugly over your child’s nose, mouth, and chin ensuring no air leaks.
4. Press the inhaler canister once to release the medication.
5. Encourage your child to breathe in and out slowly and steadily through the mouth for about 25-30 seconds.
6. After this, remove the mask gently.
7. If more than one puff is prescribed, wait 30 seconds to 1 minute before repeating.
8. If the child is uncooperative, doing this for 10-15 seconds is acceptable; additional doses can be given to compensate.
Caring for the Spacer and Mask
1. Wash the spacer and mask once weekly with lukewarm water and mild soap.
2. Air dry them completely; do not use cloth to dry.
3. Replace the spacer every 6 months to maintain effective medication delivery.
Conclusion
Using the MDI with spacer and face mask correctly ensures your child gets the medication deep into the lungs while minimizing side effects. Practice the technique regularly, and consult your doctor if you have any concerns.

I was diagnosed with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) four years ago. For over two years, I relied on prescription medications and therapies, but unfortunately, the symptoms continued to worsen. My breathing became more laboured, and I experienced increasing fatigue and shortness of breath with even minimal activity.Last year, out of desperation and hope, I decided to try an herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic. Honestly, I was skeptical at first, but within a few months of starting the treatment, I began to notice real changes. My breathing became easier, the tightness in my chest eased, and I felt more energetic and capable in my daily life. Incredibly, I also regained much of my stamina and confidence.It’s been a life-changing experience I feel more like myself again, better than I’ve felt in years. If you or a loved one is struggling with COPD, I truly recommend looking into their natural approach. You can visit their website at www.naturepathherbalclinic.com

Please everyone should be careful and stop being fooled by all these brokers and account managers, they scammed me over $ 170,000 of my investment capital, they kept on requesting for extra funds before a withdrawal request can be accepted and processed, in the end, I lost all my money. All efforts to reach out to their customer support desk had declined, I found it very hard to move on. God so kind I followed a broadcast that teaches on how scammed victims can recover their fund with the help of Ghost Champion Recovery Hackers Services, I contacted the email provided for consultation ([email protected] ), I got feedback after some hours and I was asked to provide all legal details concerning my investment, I did exactly what they instructed me to do without delay, to my greatest surprise I was able to recover my money back including my profit which my capital generated. I said I will not hold this to myself but share it to the public so that all scammed victims can get their funds back, you can as well hire him today by Email: [email protected] Telegram:https://t.me/WizardGhosthacker
