@robinmelissa that’s crazy rinsing the inhaler to get full dosage it shouldn’t get clogged up that fast. The problem been the inhaler itself, when pushing down there are times you don’t get full dose, I can hear the force when it’s not strong so to me using a spacer there’s nothing showing the dosage and it doesn’t make more medication to go in there if it’s not coming out of the inhaler, I believe because we don’t always get the full dosage that’s why it doesn’t last 12 hours. I love breztri when I get the full dose but sometimes it’s a hit or miss what comes out, if we are paying for a inhaler it should work we shouldn’t have to buy another product to get the right amount into our longs , I’m hoping they change it. Stay well

The nozzel itself gets clogged so take the canister out place the plastic part in a nice warm Results:
Yes, it is very important to wash the plastic part (actuator) of the Breztri Aerosphere inhaler weekly to prevent medicine buildup, which can block the spray and reduce the amount of medication you receive.
Be sure and not get the set aside canister wet at all.
How to Properly Clean the Breztri Inhaler:
Remove the Canister: Take the metal canister out of the plastic actuator and set it aside. Do not let the canister get wet.
Rinse the Actuator: Remove the mouthpiece cover. Run warm water through the top of the mouthpiece for 30 seconds, then through the top of the actuator for another 30 seconds (60 seconds total).
Check for Buildup: Inspect the actuator and mouthpiece for any remaining medicine buildup. If there is, repeat the rinsing steps.
Dry Completely: Shake off as much water as possible. Allow the actuator to air-dry completely, preferably overnight, before putting the canister back in.
Re-prime the Inhaler: After washing, you must re-prime the inhaler by releasing 2 test-puffs into the air, shaking before each spray.
