"My experience is the same as so many others. They clog after a few uses. The scary part is that they still sound as though they are dispensing medicine, but it is going up the canister and not into the patient. I can imagine that people, especially children, could be harmed and unaware that they're not getting the medicine they believe they are. It is a small inhaler, with a dose counter on it, which is great, but it is useless if it clogged and cannot help someone when it's needed."

"I am not sure why anyone is complaining about this inhaler brand. I've had asthma ever since I was about 6 months old and have been with ProAir since its release. I was switched temporarily to Ventolin but was put back on ProAir ASAP after having an asthma attack after taking a puff from the Ventolin inhaler. My insurance made sure to let my doctor know to keep me on it and to not switch it without telling them or having them talk to me about it. It is the only inhaler that works for me. I also do not use the generic versions."

"My son has had ProAir HFA switched when Covid hit, and it's JUNK. I do not recommend leaving any pharmacy with this if you actually need to count on breathing or having a reliable inhaler. It clogs all the time, which is unacceptable if you have activities that involve being outside and possibly away from being able to wash it. Even when it's able to dispense properly, the relief it provides is minimal at best. What a joke. Yes, I'm angry. I have worked hard to figure out what works for my kid, and to have someone tell me I cannot do that is not acceptable."
