Corrected entry: Claire has several asthma attacks throughout the film. Each of these are treated by spraying an inhaler in the general direction of her mouth, followed by her breathing in a second or two later. As anyone who has even seen someone use an inhaler (let alone used one themselves) would know, the inhaler outlet needs to be in the mouth with lips around it; you then breath in as you press down the spray.

Correction: As an asthma sufferer myself, I can say this is absolutely false. It depends on which method the prescribing doctor prefers. My doctor taught me the outlet should NEVER be in the mouth: the medication being a corticosteroid, it could lead to a yeast infections in the mouth. The medication should be puffed out about two inches from the mouth (but in its direction), then inhaled, which directs it all to your lungs instead of all around your mouth.
