 MediTrack designs and manufactures counters for MDI inhalers. Our main product, the DOSER is a patented, FDA-approved electronic digital counter that accurately tracks the number of inhalations remaining in the canister. It easily attaches to the top of MDI canisters and can be used with beta agonists and inhaled steroids. As the MDI is used normally, the DOSER accurately counts and records each puff of medication. It Displays the number of inhalations remaining; the number of “puffs” taken during the current day; stores 30 days usage history; has a 3-beep alert, that signals the user when fewer than 20 doses remain in the canister. Can be continually reused on new medication canisters. It is pressure-activated; each time the inhaler is actuated, the DOSER records the actuation. Respiratory Therapists find the DOSER an excellent tool to help manage medication therapy. MediTrack supplies the DOSER to over 300 hospitals and universities, including National Jewish in Denver, UCLA, Mayo Clinics, and the John Hopkins Asthma Centers.
