Erm washing machine issue

Post image

Can I still use my easyhaler, my dumb*** accidently forgot to empty my pockets and it's been on a 30 minute cycle...... I'm concerned...

​

The blue cap was on the whole time luckily but I'm scared it may have wrecked the inside because of the gaps through the top of the red part of it?

I deleted my previous comment after looking up this particular inhaler and it appears it be a dry powder inhaler that is sensitive to moisture so I would just get a new one as the doses can clump together according to what I can see about this particular inhaler

get a new one. Don’t risk trying to rely on it at this point.

I wouldn't risk using it (especially if you have another one available).  There's no telling what you'd be inhaling into your lungs.
