Albuterol "I specifically asked my doctor to switch me off the Ventolin inhaler to the ProAir inhaler. The Ventolin inhaler seems like it does not give a big enough puff, while the ProAir inhaler gives me a smooth, problem-free puff without having to take a second one."

Albuterol "I hate the new inhaler. The canister is fine, but the new outer part is horrible! It doesn’t let a full pump out, and it gets clogged. It wastes so much of the medicine, and it is horrible."
