What is a Home Nebulizer?

A home nebulizer is the most common kind of nebulizer. They must be plugged into a power outlet because they are not portable, but over time they have shown to be fairly dependable. These personal nebulizers are less expensive and have a high level of efficacy. Accessories and replacement components are inexpensive and easy to maintain. Some home nebulizers are made especially with kids in mind; they have fun designs that will keep kids entertained while they receive respiratory care.

What Is Home Nebulizer Therapy?

With a home nebulizer machine, a dosage of medicine is changed from liquid to mist for the patient to inhale during home nebulizer therapy. Nebulizer treatment is used to treat a variety of respiratory conditions, including:

• COPD
• Cystic Fibrosis

What Are The Different Parts of A Home Nebulizer?

How to Clean a Home Nebulizer

Proper cleaning is essential for home nebulizer therapy because dirty equipment puts patients at risk of breathing in germs during use.

As strictly as possible, adhere to the cleaning instructions provided by the manufacturer, which often call for the actions listed below:

• All parts of the home nebulizer therapy system should be disconnected before cleaning.
• The face mask or mouthpiece, top piece, and medicine cup should all be cleaned with warm, soapy water or on the top rack of a dishwasher.
• Let the parts naturally dry before putting them back into the nebulizer. 

Perform a more thorough cleaning of the nebulizer once every week. Follow the manufacturer's instructions or soak the top piece, medicine cup, face mask or mouthpiece in a solution of white vinegar and water for 30 minutes. These items should all be cleaned and air dried.

The tubing and the compressor should not be immersed in water. Instead, clean the exterior of these things with a soapy cloth.

The air compressor for the nebulizer contains a filter. Filters should be changed after the time frame mentioned in the manufacturer's recommendations.

Is a Prescription for a Home Nebulizer Required?

Yes, to purchase a nebulizer, you must have a doctor's prescription. Whether you want a portable machine or a home nebulizer, both require prescriptions for purchase and use.

Can I Use A Nebulizer With Only Water?

You can use your nebulizer without any medication with a saline water solution or filtered water. Water mist provides therapeutic qualities to relax the nasal passage and enter the lungs. If you're traveling and forgot your medicine and need a brief session with your nebulizer, then you can use distilled or saline water.
