Has this happened before? Are you using it correctly?

Clean the mouthpiece after each use as directed in the Patient Information Leaflet. It should also be cleaned at any time that it appears to be clogged or is not working correctly.
Try to keep track of the number of inhalations used from each canister. Discard the canister after you have used the number of inhalations marked on the product package.

Check next time you visit your doctor or pharmacist... it should not quit working when only half empty!!
