Qvar inhalers are a preventative treatment for everyday asthma symptoms. There are two varieties of Qvar inhalers available: the Aerosol Inhaler and the Autohaler. These inhalers are effective in helping to control your asthma and preventing the occurrence of future attacks. Typical daily use requires a dose in the morning and evening to lower inflammation in the lungs to stop asthma attacks. Using the Qvar's Aerosol inhaler is simple – just press the metal canister down and the medicine is released as a spray. Qvar Autohaler on the other hand automatically releases the dosage when you inhale from the mouthpiece. Corticosteroid, Beclomethasone Dipropionate is the active ingredient in the inhalers. Once it enters the lungs, it prevents cells in the area from producing the inflammation-causing chemicals. Everyday use of Qvar inhalers effectively manages the inflammation of the airways hence lowering the risk of an asthma attack.

Description

What is Qvar Inhaler and Auto Inhaler?

Qvar Inhaler and Auto Inhaler are two types of inhalers used to treat asthma. Qvar Inhaler is a corticosteroid inhaler, while Auto Inhaler is an electronic device that helps deliver the medication from the inhaler to your lungs. Both devices are effective in treating asthma symptoms. Speak to your doctor first if you're interested in using either of these devices to help manage your asthma.

How Does Qvar Inhaler and Auto Inhaler Work?

Both Qvar Inhaler and Auto Inhaler work by delivering a dose of beclomethasone dipropionate, a corticosteroid, directly to your lungs. This helps to reduce inflammation and open up your airways, making it easier to breathe. Qvar Inhaler is a metered-dose inhaler that delivers the beclomethasone dipropionate in a dry powder form.
