MediSpacer

The MediSpacer is also a holding chamber.  The sprayed aerosol first enters the chamber when the actuator is pressed.  Inhalation then draws the aerosol into the respiratory system through the reverse direction.  The design is to prevent the patient blowing aerosols away during exhalation so that the drug dose does not get wasted.
