When the pulmo prescribed the Symbicort, he gave me a free "AeroChamber Flow-Vu". It says on the product - anti-static valved holding chamber, but its really just a mouthpiece which you can use with the metered dose inhaler(MDI). Instead of inhaling it directly from the MDI, you attached the chamber to the MDI.
This additional apparatus makes me uncomfortable. But, I can tolerate it if it is really necessary.
My question : is the chamber necessary? does it help the patient inhaled better? does it protect the throat from certain particles? does any of you use this? do you find it helpful/useful?
Thank you so much.
