Access to the right inhaler and using it correctly can save lives.

Today, we’re backing World Asthma Day.

Too many asthma attacks in Aotearoa are preventable.

 

Watch as our ambassadors demonstrate proper inhaler technique.

Because inhalers only work when they’re used the right way.

There are several asthma medications. These also need to be used correctly.
