My daughter has been using a blue inhaler when she's had colds over the last 2 years. She is now 4 and has been told to use a preventative brown inhaler twice a day.

We were advised to no longer use the mask, and that she could use a mouthpiece on the spacer. I can't see a mouthpiece though. Surely she isn't to put her mouth over the big yellow end?

Was she given the wrong spacer?

Aaah okay that makes sense thank you.

Yes, it is the yellow one in your second link we have for her. The mask is quite happy and I'm not sure she is getting the full dose. I'll see if the pharmacy can get the other type for me - that is what the doctor said, that there's a mouthpiece behind the mask.
