Abstract Obstructive Lung Diseases (OLD) mainly include Asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). They are characterized by decreased airflow out of the lungs as a result of narrowing of the airway lumen.Inhalers are the most preferred treatment as the medications are easily delivered to the respiratory tract. Inhalers help to prevent flares and keep symptoms from getting worse. But the inhalers should be used in a right way to get the proper therapeutic outcome. There is a chance for the patient to commit errors in the steps of inhalation technique which may be due to lack of information or counselling. Better outcome of Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (OPD) is associated with good adherence and usage of the drug therapy.Proper patient counselling can improve the adherence to inhalers and also minimizes the occurance of errors in inhalational technique.
Keywords Obstructive Lung Disease (OLD), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Asthma, Inhalers, Errors, Adherence, Patient counselling.
