Where can I get more information about asthma?

  • The Royal Children’s Hospital website has some great content relating to asthma in kids. Start HERE.
  • The National Asthma Council has videos teaching you how to use your specific inhaler correctly, as each brand and model has its own special technique ( a majority of people get it wrong, even people who have used a puffer for many years!). Start HERE.
