Just wondering

They seem very strict about rinsing his mouth after - it is plastered all over the label

He does rince his mouth after his inhalers & has done for a while

But this seems overkill

its the same as betamethasone just its CFC free

you have to wash your mouth because its a steroid and can cause thrush in mouth which is v unpleasant

hope this helps

betamethasone which colour is that?

The Dr said this new one had a different droplet size

He will gargle & spit then rinse & spit - he's a good boy (mostly)

I will ask for one next time I get my prescription.
I'm interested in it being CFC free but I'm actually more interested because it sounds like the Darth Vader of inhalers
