How to Use Handihaler Inhalers

Do you know how to properly use your Handihaler Inhaler? Studies show only 1/3 of patients are using their inhalers correctly, 1/3 are performing adequately but not correct and 1/3 are using their inhalers incorrectly.
Spiriva Handihaler (tiotropium bromide inhalation powder) is used for the treatment of bronchospasm associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including chronic bronchitis and emphysema. This video will teach you how to properly use a Handihaler inhaler.

This is actually easier than other inhalers I've used in the past and even easier than the inhaler I thought I was given for this prescription. I was a bit confused when i first opened it and saw the separate capsules but it's a relief to find how easy it is to use.
Thanks!

Thank you. The directions made it sound complicated.

My only question is does the capsule wrinkle or deflate after use?

[@1972usmc]

So many times I found when I put the capsules in that where empty, who do I report this to

[@carolinanieves937]

I think you should contact your pharmacist and they will be communicating this issue with the manufacture

What if your capsule doesn't rattle at alll
