Instructions for using OptiChamber Diamond valved holding chamber
OptiChamber Diamond helps you get your inhaler medicine
into your lungs, where it works
Please follow these instructions carefully, and also read the instructions for use
inside the OptiChamber Diamond box.
1
Remove the caps
from the inhaler
and the Diamond
chamber. Look for
and remove any
foreign objects in
the chamber.
5
Place your lips around
the mouthpiece to
form a tight seal.
Exhale. Spray one
puff of medicine into
the chamber and
immediately begin
to inhale slowly,
taking a full deep
breath.*
2
Insert the
mouthpiece
of your inhaler
securely into
the back of the
Diamond chamber.
6
If the flow alert
‘whistle’ sounds,
breathe in more
slowly. Hold your
breath for up to 8
seconds and then
breathe out.
* If your doctor has instructed you to take
more than one puff of medication, wait for
one minute and then repeat steps 5 – 8.
3
If a mask is needed,
place the mask onto
the mouthpiece end
and gently twist
until it fits securely.
7
Or if using a mask,
press and hold
the mask over the
mouth and nose.
Spray one puff
of medicine into
the chamber and
breathe in and out
for 6 breaths.*
4
Shake the
chamber and
inhaler 4 – 5 times.
8
The exhalation valve
will open when
the user breathes
out, which can help
you to count the
breaths.
