What if the doctor writes a script for proair and the SIG says "use with spacer" but the patient profile has no spacer on it. Can this be considered a script for a spacer as well as an inhaler since it says use with spacer?
I was wondering... it seems like at the pharmacy we hand out inhalers all day long but rarely a spacer.
Is the doctor providing a spacer at the office? Do most people just not use a spacer with plain albuterol? If it says use with spacer but they never send a script for a spacer is it assumed that I'm dispensing one?
Also why are spacers not able to be sold OTC?
