What is Qvar Inhaler prescribed for?
Doctors commonly prescribe Qvar as a maintenance medication to be taken on a daily basis to help prevent asthma flare-ups. Asthma is a respiratory condition in which your airways narrow and swell and produce extra mucus. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. Patients can decrease the number and severity of their asthma attacks when the regular use of their prescribed Qvar Inhaler dosage.

FAQs
How to use Qvar Inhaler?
First, remove the plastic cap and make sure there are no foreign objects on the mouthpiece. Be sure to check the dose counter before use, and then prime the inhaler if needed by releasing 2 puffs into the air and away from your face. When ready to use, breathe out as fully as you can in a comfortable manner. Hold the inhaler to your mouth, and then close our lips around the mouthpiece, keeping your tongue below it. And while breathing in deeply and slowly, press down on the canister with your fingers. When you have finished breathing in, hold your breath for as long as you can at a comfortable level (5 to 10 seconds). Take your finger off the canister and remove the inhaler from your mouth, and gently breathe out. When complete, rinse your mouth out with water.
