I have been advised by a Paramedic this evening that I should be taking my Atrovent inhaler through the volmatic spacer and not the Aerochamber Plus spacer device.
I am not doubting what the Paramedic told me but I was just wondering what everyone else does.
Does the Atrovent inhaler work any better if I use the volmatic spacer

Thanks for that Fee, I was concerned because I was unsure if I was doing the wrong thing
just backing what fee says
doesn't matter how you take the atrovent, as with salbutamol i suppose ini, via aerochamber or volumatic - as an example, children <6 use the volumatics or aerochamber plus or yellow aerochambers with masks, they are all as effective.
