Will an inhalation chamber with a mask or with a mouthpiece be better for a child of 4.5 years?
Good morning I have a question about the tube for the drug Flixotide, for a child of 4.5 years whether it will be better with a mask or without the mouthpiece itself?

Well, we have to use the drug through the chamber, the doctor showed us the mouthpiece chamber and the rules of its use and in the pharmacy they said that it will be better with the mask so I lost a little, but we already have a chamber and we use through the mouthpiece. We give advice thank you.

Inhalation chambers are recommended for children (using a face mask instead of a mouthpiece under the age of 3 years), the elderly and disabled, and those with mental illness or impaired dexterity. If none of the situations described occurs, there is no need to use a chamber. You can give the drug directly from the package. Unless otherwise recommended by your doctor. Please note that large aerosol particles are retained in the inhalation chamber, which means that the dose of the drug is lost. I also encourage you to read the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/czym-sie-rozni-nebulizator-od-inhalatora
