Inhaler bag/case

6 Replies

Can anyone recommend a good case or bag that would fit an inhaler, spacer and peak flow metre in please. My daughter is 10 and going on her first school residential soon and just want to make sure all her bits are kept safe and together :)

I've just ordered one from here: medpac.co.uk I don't know what it is like because it hasn't arrived yet! I will let you know :-)

I would just get her a pretty toiletry bag or something similar that she likes, it doesn't have to be a special medical one which looks different - whatever it fits in thats nice!

Can i ask what size medipac you got, was wondering if the small one would fit a standard spacer and inhalers, + piriton?

I would say looking at the website that if you want to put a spacer as well as inhalers etc in it you would need to go for the large one as the small one only fits two inhalers. I have also seen them at the Allergy show and they are not that big. I'm with Nursefurby and a pretty toiletry bag. It keeps everything together and clean and as long as people around are aware that is where she keeps her inhalers then she shouldn't have a problem.

I bought a large and a small medpac. The small one will take an AeroChamber spacer and one inhaler, but there isn't much room for anything else. The large one is actually quite big; I fit two inhalers, an AeroChamber spacer and a little nebuliser in it (inside its own case). I think a spacer, one inhaler and piriton might be rattling around a bit! Really they could do with a medium case as well.

Thank you for all the replies :) I've tried a pretty little cath kidston bag before but it didn't take long for it to be misplaced so I'm going with the theory that a medical looking bag will be treated with a bit more importance ( here's hoping lol) :)
