i know many have posted about the taste of Clenil inhaler but has anyone found any solutions to get rid of the disgusting taste. Mine seems to last all day so wondered if it's just the inhaler or I have another cause. Thanks

Do you use it with a spacer or aerochamber? Gets more into the lungs rather than sit in your mouth

Do you use a spacer when taking Clenil? I use to get the taste not anymore as I started to use a spacer, good luck.

Thanks Kjm83 and marvinbear I do use an aerochamber can still taste it when using it no where near as foul, so maybe it's another cause.

The asthma nurse I saw yesterday advised me to rinse my mouth out after using 😊 not sure is this would help you or not

Many thanks Carriejen, usually clean my teeth straight after, so maybe I should try rinsing mouth out first.

The taste hasn't began to bother me... yet. But yea, she advised rinsing more so to make sure the steroids don't start to give you a sore throat etc
