Nebulizers are typically used by asthmatic patients. The concept is quite simple: inhaled asthma medicines go directly to the lungs and may therefore relieve asthmatic symptoms faster.
Nebuliser is a device that changes liquid medicine into a fine mist. This mist can be then inhaled through a mask or a mouthpiece.
Nebulizers are typically used to give high doses of reliever medicine usually in an emergency. For example, nebulizers are most effective when someone is having a severe asthma attack. Nebulizers are a relatively cheap and efficient way of delivering a dose of medicine to someone who is really struggling to breathe. But most people with asthma don’t actually need to use a nebulizer – other than under certain circumstances.
Typically a respiratory consultant, after diagnosing or assessing you, will recommend the usage of nebulizers at home. In certain cases, nebulizers may be used by those suffering from Cystic Fibrosis (CF) – a genetic condition that causes the lungs to become clogged with mucus. But again, seek clinical advice before using nebulizers in these cases.
