Kelhale inhaler is a metered-dose inhaler prescribed for treating symptoms of mild to severe asthma and breathing disorders. Kelhale inhaler contains medicine, Beclometasone dipropionate, which is a corticosteroid. Kelhale inhaler contains Beclomethasone in an extra-fine powder form; thus, patients can avail higher efficacy in lower doses of the medicine.

In asthma, inflammation in the airways results in difficulty in breathing. Kelhale inhaler contains Beclomethasone, a corticosteroid, which has an anti-inflammatory effect, inhibiting inflammation-inducing factors. This reduces the inflammation and associated difficulty in breathing.  Kelhale is a preventive inhaler and will not be effective to provide immediate relief in case of breathlessness. 

Kelhale inhaler is available in two strengths-

• 50 µg of Beclamethasone per delivered dose
• 100µg of Beclamethasone per delivered dose

The dose and dosing frequency will depend upon the severity of asthma. With each actuation of the device, the number of doses will reduce on the device counter. 

Kelhale inhaler is an oral inhaler, and it is vital to wash your mouth after using the Kelhale inhaler thoroughly. Also, one should be careful not to drink the water used for rinsing the mouth. Follow the steps mentioned below to use the Klhale inhaler.

• You can use a Kelhale inhaler in either a sitting or standing position.
  
  
• Remove the cover of the mouthpiece and ensure that it is clean
  
  
• Hold the inhaler in an upright position, such that the thumb is placed under the mouthpiece of the inhaler device. Now, breathe out as much as possible. Donot breathe in.
  
  
• Place the mouthpiece of the inhaler device between the teeth in your mouth. Close the lips, ensuring that the mouthpiece is covered thoroughly.
  
  
• Now start breathing in and simultaneously press the top of the device to release the puff of the medicine. While doing so, keep breathing slowly and steadily.
  
  
• Take the inhaler off your mouth and hold your breath as long as possible. 
  
  
• In case doctors have prescribed you two puffs of the medicine, repeat the process. However, keep a gap of a minute between two puffs.
  
  
• Once done, immediately place the cover firmly onto the mouthpiece to avoid its contamination with dust. Push the cover and click it back to its position to ensure the complete closure of the device.
  
  
• A dose indicator at the back of the inhaler will tell you about the number of doses left in the device. Typically, the new inhaler shows a value of ‘200’. With each actuation, this number will start to reduce. However, the display will show the reduced dose only after every 20 doses. It is good to get a new inhaler device when the dose indicator shows a value of ‘40’.When the dose indicator displays the value of ‘0’, discard the inhaler.
