No. There is a potential risk for contracting diseases, such as tuberculosis. It is also an unethical practice to take things that patients have paid for or were billed for.

What happens when asthma inhaler is used repeatedly?

Repeated use of an inhaler causes addiction. This eventually leads to a patient being not responding to the medicine in the inhaler and may eventually result into death in case of an attack. Its advisable avoid conditions that usually bring attacks since after every after attack requires the patient to use the inhaler. The patient should make use of other asthma tablet drugs such as salbetamol, predinsol (sp). instead of using an inhaler. The patients should avoid these; deodorants, perfumes, sprays, insecticides, pesticides, dust, chocking fumes such as burning tires, avoid making fire using plastics, avoid cold conditions and always take fruits to avoid influenza. There are so many things to avoid depending on where the patient lives. Contact me for a herbal drug that completely cures asthma on +256776994599

What does a brown inhaler do?

For asthma, patients are often prescribed two types of inhalers. Manufacturers of inhalers have standardized the colors of the plastic holders for inhalers to reduce confusion. The blue inhaler is used for immediate relief; it is often called a rescue inhaler. It is used when you have immediate symptoms. It is not quite a PRN "as needed" medication because, while you can use it for rescue/immediate symptoms, it cannot be used more than the maximum number of times per day that you've been instructed to use it. In fact, if you find yourself needing it more than the number of times prescribed as the maximum per day, your doctor needs to know so he can adjust the dose or timing of your maintenance inhaler. Rescue inhalers should only be used when you truly need it.The brown inhaler is referred to as a maintenance inhaler. It is used on a regular prescribed basis to reduce symptoms and prevent further attacks. You use the maintenance inhaler whether you feel symptoms or not. It is intended to keep your airways open by reducing inflammation and irritation on a regular basis.
