Description: Short Acting Beta Agonist (SABA) inhalers in South Africa are available to patients without a prescription from an authorised prescriber. This study utilised a mystery shopping technique to observe, record and compare the dispensing practices of pharmacy personnel, when dispensing a reliever inhaler, to the minimum requirements set out by the South African Pharmacy Council. The results of this study indicated that there was no adherence to the minimum requirements when dispensing a reliever inhaler.
