Jim, Dave, All,

Other questions could include: Where do they live? At what times of the year and what times of the day are the inhalers being used? Is it pollen season? What other potentially unhealthy environmental exposures exist? For what specific medical problems were the inhalers prescribed and what medication is being inhaled? I could go on.

Many times, medications are prescribed to placate the patient or the patient's family, not because they are actually medically indicated. Antibiotics come to mind here.
