In order to educate pt on inhaler should pharmacist open the inhaler box and show how to use it or just go through the inhaler package insert .

You don't open anything. Let the patient open it.

We have demo devices...try to get your hands on some of those. If you can't find one, have the patient do it themselves.

I open and demonstrate albuterol but hold it next to my head and explain they should put their mouth on the device. It has to be primed anyway, so why not?

You can order a demo device otherwise just do what zelman said
