An aerosol holding chamber for use with a metered-dose inhaler having a tubular outlet has an elongated body having a rear end wall formed with a hole shaped to fit snugly around the tubular outlet of the inhaler, a front end provided with a mouthpiece, and a partition defining in the body a front compartment at the mouthpiece and a rear compartment at the rear wall. A vent passage opens outward from the front compartment and a first check valve at the partition permits gas flow through the partition only from the rear compartment to the front compartment. A second check valve permits gas flow only out of the front compartment through the vent passage. An air-flow actuated noise maker in the vent passage generates an audible sound when air blown into the front compartment exits through the vent passage. The device is inserted into the user's mouth and the user first exhales into it, with the noisemaker indicating that this is happening. Once the noise stops, which indicates that the user cannot breath out any more, he or she actuates the inhaler to inject a dose into the chamber and breathes in, taking the medicament in.
