Health - 12 September 2006

In the past I have gotten "sample" inhalers, they are red with a white cap and they are terrible. I don't use them unless I have no choice, instead I would pay the $10 and get a good one from the pharmacy. What I did not know, these two inhalers have the same medicine in them but the propellant is different. The good ones uses (sp?)florocarobons to push the medicine down into your lungs where it can do you some good, the other one does not.

So when I went to get my "good" inhaler refilled imagine my suprise to find that they will no longer be making them because of the (sp?)florocarbons and now you can only get the crappy red ones.

THE RED ONES DO NOT WORK! THEY JUST SPIT THE MEDICINE INTO YOUR MOUTH! HOW MUCH DAMAGE TO THE OZONE COULD AN INHALER DO? (consider that there is a huge display of Aqua Net right next to the pharmacy)

And to top all of this off, the new worthless inhaler costs $33, so triple the price for crappy meds.

THANKS SO MUCH ALGORE YOU STUPID GIT!
