Background

Twisthaler does not use any propellant like the Metered Dose Inhaler so it does not use the slow and deep breathing technique or the hand breath coordination. What helps to deliver the medication into your lungs is you own inhaling forceful breathing. Your breathing should be deep and strong enough to inhale the powdered medicine from the inhaler device. Quick and deep breathing is needed to inhale the complete medicine dosage from the inhaler.
