I hate hate hate this inhaler. I have had ashtma my entire life and alway had used ventolin inhalers (the ugly blue ones) in the past. They worked 100% of the time and saved me from many attacks. Since using pro air, I have to take it 3 times as much even with my regular daily maintenance inhaler. It is making my asthma worse. I need it so I use it. Hours later need more again.

I hate hate hate this inhaler. I have had ashtma my entire life and alway had used ventolin inhalers (the ugly blue ones) in the past. They worked 100% of the time and saved me from many attacks. Since using pro air, I have to take it 3 times as much even with my regular daily maintenance inhaler. It is making my asthma worse. I need it so I use it. Hours later need more again. The taste is horrific, and the puff is weak at best going into my body. Currently bypassing taking it at all and using my nebulizer to take albuterol/ventolin now, haven't had to bust that noisy thing out in a long time. My sister who also had asthma is effected the same way.

I'm a bit confused by all the reviews claiming the in haler is difficult to use, clogs, etc. I've never had any issue or difficulty with clogging, nor with using the inhaler. My only complaints are with some of the side effects, including raised blood pressure which leaves my hands tingling and makes me lightheaded and unable to sleep if I take it at night; and I sometimes will get small sores in the back of my mouth or throat after using it, but if I gargle and rinse immediately after using, it seems to help prevent this. Overall, though, the bottom line is that when I'm having trouble breathing, this medication has never failed to clear it up quickly, and that is worth the side effects for me.

Very dissatisfied with Proair. Container is extremely difficult to handle for immediate use. The first puff doesn't release properly. Then I "waste a puff by throwing it into midair" and then try again to get relief. My insurance company made the switch to my medication. I am now requesting to go back on my former medication.

This is one of the worst asthmas inhalers I have ever used the medicine may be good but the inhalant to push the medicine out is mediocre. If you are having an asthma attack you need an inhalant that pushes the medicine out this is useless compared to Proventil & Ventolin.
