Patient/caregiver was educated on precautions to be exercised while using a Beta-2 agonist diskus as follows:

1. Do not use a spacer with the Beta-2 agonist inhalation diskus, as spacers cannot help powder form of the inhaler.
2. Do not wet or wash the diskus and the mouthpiece. Always, maintain them dry.
3. After loading the medication ready to inhale, one important precaution regarding using a diskus is to not drop the diskus or change the position of the diskus or breathe into the diskus. This can result in losing the dose of Beta-2 agonist medication and wastage. You should load the diskus again to continue inhale the medication.
4. Beta-2 agonist inhalation diskus usually comes with a built-in counter to indicate the number of doses left. The counter automatically adjusts to the number of doses left in the diskus, every time the diskus is used.
5. Keep a watch on these numbers to order for a timely refill, as the number draw closer to zero.
