I've just been prescribed this inhaler. Exactly same as in video but with different counter.
This 'machine' is NOT user-friendly for anyone with arthritis in their hands, especially thumbs, or anyone with less than good dexterity issues.
Incredibly over-engineered, despite medical 'reps' always saying the intention is to design inhalers that are easier to use!!
Over the years I've used a variety of inhalers from the Rotahaler to the standard Trimbow (works just like the usual Ventolin/Fostair). The latter with and without an aero-chamber.
Also, when using the Respimat, there is no sensation of anything entering your mouth, so you're never sure you've used it correctly.
So, on a scale of 0 to 10, I'd have to rate this as a 1 or 2, purely on the basis of complexity, and unsuitability for a variety of reasons as listed above . . . and that doesn't even include the massive and not entirely helpful instruction sheet. (as others also refer to in their comments).

Pls help. We used it for the first time for our 82-yr old DAD with COPD. He had difficulty comprehending process of sucking in air, holding his breath and keeping his mouth closed. Is there some mist that comes out from the air vents during the inhaling process?

[@mikewiilliamswilliams6230]

Is it okay to do breathing treatments along with this inhaler?

[@irmacamp210]

I was told not to, I use my Respimat in the morning and waited 2 hours before I used my inhaler. You can always Google this question to get your answer.

[@bellabear6887]

Please come out for gdfm exam

[@afsaneharzani5158]

[@witzching669]

how can i use respimat with an aerochamber?

[@watermelonlemon342]

u dont need an aerochamber with respimat

[@melodymaben5365]

When you take your puffs does the indicator move up to the 60

[@theverseshed]

It counts down. Reorder replacement cartridge when it reaches 10. I hate this inhaler - see my own review posted 13.10.23

[@edonhartford3164]

[@theverseshed]

I can't but the darn thing is so complicated, who knows? I posted my own detailed comment.

[@kerethajackson2435]

[@ibji]

Did not know the device locks when empty. I guess I'll find out soon enough.

[@pamelamichie7231]

It does lock When there's no more you won't be able to turn it Then you can discard it Thank you

[@itsyvonne100]

This is not for Asthma. This medication is used for people who have COPD.

[@totallydreamsrealalt156]

[@sweetness_5772]

You're wrong this is for asthmatics.
