A metered dosage inhaler system with variable positive pressure settings has a hollow housing with a front portion with a cylindrical protruding user adaptor portion, a top face having apertures, a user controlled air resistance dial, a bottom face having a handle/input, and a cylindrical downwardly extending hollow handle portion. The first end of the handle portion is adapted to form an airtight removable coupling with the handle/input adaptor. An end piece with holes is adapted to couple to the second end of the handle portion. A spherical ball has a diameter less than that of the handle portion and removably rests in the handle portion. The ball rises in response to a vacuum caused by a,patient. A mouth piece portion has a cylindrical first portion removably coupled to the adapter portion and a tapered second portion adapted to fit comfortably within the mouth of a patient.
