Do You Really Need To Use a Spacer?

Do You Really Need to Use a Spacer?

In this video, I break down the importance of using a spacer with your inhaler and answer the question: Do you really need to use a spacer?

As a pharmacist with a special interest in asthma and COPD, I explain what a spacer is, how it works, and why it can make a significant difference to your inhaler technique.

I also discuss when a spacer is necessary—highlighting that while spacers are essential for metered dose inhalers (MDIs), they are not designed for dry powder inhalers (DPIs) or breath-actuated inhalers.
