  smartinhaler is an automated asthma management program, and it is the main program of the company.

Asthma is a chronic lung condition. It is characterized by difficulty in breathing.
Asthma sufferers use inhalers to spray special kinds of medicine into their breathing tubes. The medicine usually helps the muscles relax so that the patient can breathe easy again. There are a number of different medicines, for example preventer and reliever.

With conventional inhalers, the record of inhaler/medicine usage is completely dependent on the patient. That is, one might need to write down the time of use and the medicine used. This is often inconvenient and unreliable way of keeping track of asthma.

Unlike conventional inhalers, smartinhaler has a built-in microcomputer that automatically collects such information without bothering the user. In addition, smartinhaler provides users with alerting feature, so that the patient can take the preventer medicine regularly.

Patients can then view their record collected by smartinhaler through smartinhaler.com website - this record provides a way to review and examine the patient's symptoms which can be used by doctors to give suitable prescription to help the patient.

smartinhaler effectively provides ways to manage asthma before it attacks.
