Nebulizers

Effectively delivering medication to your lungs is an essential component of treating Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), bronchitis, pneumonia, or asthma. Sometimes, traditional inhalers may not be enough, and a physician may prescribe a nebulizer to treat your breathing difficulties. Nebulizer therapy is often called a breathing treatment. Nebulizers are especially helpful when a patient needs a large dose of inhaled medication.

Who Can Benefit From A Nebulizer?

RespriMed offers non-invasive ventilation (NIV) therapy for people with:

  • Chronic respiratory failure due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which includes chronic bronchitis, and emphysema

  • Pneumonia 

  • Asthma

​

Nebulizer Therapy

A nebulizer converts liquid medicine into a fine mist. Using either a mouthpiece or mask, you can more easily inhale your medicine into your lungs to help effectively treat your respiratory condition.

Nebulizers come in tabletop and portable models. Sometimes, nebulizers are more effective than inhalers.

Benefits of nebulizer therapy:

  • Works fast and effectively

  • Easy to use, with fewer side effects

  • Improves long-term health when used regularly

  • Helps you remain active

RespriMed offers a choice of quality nebulizer products and accessories, such as tubing, masks, and filters. So you can be sure that you receive the best treatment appropriate to your healthcare needs.

The Difference Between An Inhaler And A Nebulizer

 

Inhalers and nebulizers are different ways of delivering respiratory medications. Nebulizers are electric or battery-powered and are often easier to use than an inhaler. In one study, 80% of patients and caregivers reported that using a nebulizer was better than using only an inhaler. An overwhelming majority of patients and caregivers were satisfied with a nebulizer and reported benefits in symptom relief, ease of use, and improved quality of life.
