Spacers
Respiratory Care Spacers
Using an inhaler can be difficult when timing, hand strength or coordination gets in the way. Many people with asthma, COPD or other respiratory conditions need to press the inhaler and breathe in at the right moment. That can be hard for young children, older adults or anyone with reduced dexterity.
Spacers help make inhaler use easier. They attach to a puffer and hold the medication in a chamber, giving the user more time to breathe it in at their own pace.
BetterCareMarket offers adult and child spacers, spacers with masks, spacers without masks, antibacterial spacer masks, disposable cardboard spacers and Flo Tone MDI training tools to support safer, more confident respiratory care at home, school or while travelling.
Spacers for Children
Children often find puffers difficult to use correctly, especially when they need to press, breathe and stay calm at the same time. A spacer with mask can make inhaler use easier by allowing the child to breathe normally through the mask while the medication is held inside the chamber.
BetterCareMarket offers Able spacer masks and child spacer options in different sizes, including small and medium masks. These products can help parents, carers and support workers make asthma medication routines less stressful. A properly fitted mask is important, as gaps around the face may reduce how much medication is inhaled.
Antibacterial Asthma Spacers
An antibacterial asthma spacer can be a practical choice for regular inhaler use, especially when hygiene and repeated handling are concerns. These spacers are designed to help deliver inhaled medication more effectively while supporting a cleaner respiratory care routine.
They may suit adults, older children, carers, clinics, schools or support environments where spacers are used often. A spacer can also help reduce the amount of medication left in the mouth or throat compared with using a puffer alone.
Always follow the cleaning instructions for your spacer and ask your pharmacist, asthma educator or doctor to check your inhaler technique.
Disposable Cardboard Spacers
Disposable cardboard spacers are useful when a temporary, portable or single-user option is needed. They can be kept in school bags, travel kits, workplaces, first aid areas or emergency asthma kits. Products such as LiteAire and DispozABLE cardboard spacers are lightweight and easy to store.
These spacers may be helpful when a plastic spacer is not available, when travelling or when hygiene between users is a priority. They are not intended to replace regular medical advice or an asthma action plan, but they can provide a convenient backup for inhaler delivery when needed.
Adult and Child Spacers with or without Masks
Spacer masks help create a better seal for children or users who cannot comfortably use a mouthpiece. The right mask size can make inhaler treatment easier and more effective, especially for infants, younger children or people who need carer assistance.
BetterCareMarket offers child spacer masks, large antibacterial masks and spacer and mask combinations. Having the right replacement mask can also extend the usefulness of your spacer and support better comfort during treatment.
When choosing a mask, consider the user’s age, face size, comfort and ability to breathe calmly through the spacer.
Inhaler Training Tools
Good inhaler technique matters. Even with the right medication, poor timing or shallow breathing can reduce how much reaches the lungs. Inhaler training tools such as the Flo Tone MDI Trainer can help users practise the breathing technique needed for metered dose inhalers.
These tools may be helpful for children, adults learning to use a puffer, carers supporting someone with asthma, or healthcare professionals teaching correct technique. Training aids do not deliver medication themselves. They are designed to build confidence and improve the way a puffer and spacer are used.
