Asthma Inhalers. Metered dose inhalers can be used with a spacer or a valved holding chamber. These devices help the medication get into your lungs. Asthma medications can also be taken using a nebulizer. A nebulizer is a machine that turns the medication into a fine mist. Each inhaler has its own instructions for use.
For example, cardiac asthma is a form of heart failure in which the symptoms mimic some of the symptoms of regular asthma. Vocal cord dysfunction is another asthma mimic.
