Nebulizer machine

The nebulizer is a wonderful invention that helps to turn medicine into mist, so that it can be inhaled by patients who need treatment in such a manner. Medical machines like nebulizers can indeed be rather puzzling at times, so we at Patient Solutions would like to provide you with some tips on when you should be using a nebulizer (and when you shouldn’t be using one).

When and for Whom Should a Nebulizer Be Used?

Nebulizers are very much like inhalers, in the sense that both deliver medication to the lungs to help with respiratory issues.

If you are using an inhaler and find that it is not as effective as it should be, your doctor could suggest that you use a nebulizer instead.

How to use a nebulizer without medication

A nebulizer makes it much easier to take your medication because it aerosolizes it, turning medicine in liquid form into a gaseous mist which can then be administered to you via inhalation. To use a nebulizer, put the mouthpiece over your nose and mouth and breathe in.

The mist will deliver the medication directly to your lungs and enter your bloodstream.
