Respiratory inhalers are popular medical devices prescribed for patient suffering from COPD or asthma
An inhaler is a small device that delivers asthma medication to the lungs. They are used to treat or prevent asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and cystic fibrosis. Metered dose inhalers and dry powder inhalers are common types of inhalers that release a pre-measured spray of medicine. They look like mini aerosol cans and require coordination to press down and breathe in at the same time.
There are other types of respiratory
inhalers that do not have a chemical propellant to push the medicine out of the
inhaler, such as soft mist inhalers devices. They require more coordination and
need to be used slowly to deliver the medication.
The global
Respiratory Inhaler Market is estimated to account for US$ 32,921.8 Mn in terms of value and is expected to reach US$ 46,984.1 Mn by the end of
2027.
They also need to be refilled and
cleaned more often than other types of inhalers, to keep the medicine inside
working well. These devices are available in multiple and single dose formats
and should be replaced when they pass their expiration date or show that all
the doses have been used.
The most common type of inhaler
is a metered dose inhaler, also called an aerosol inhaler or MDI. These
inhalers push out a pre-measured "puff" of medicine, which can cause
problems if the device is not used properly or with a spacer device. Inhaled
bronchodilators, or inhalers, are the most common respiratory inhalers used to
control asthma and COPD. These medicines relax muscles that tighten around the
airways in the lungs and open them up, letting more air in and out.
These medicines are usually taken
twice daily or as needed to control symptoms and avoid attacks. They can be
taken by mouth or through a nebulizer or inhaler. Some people are prescribed a
combination of inhalers to control their asthma and other respiratory
illnesses, such as cough, sinusitis, or bronchitis.
