How Do I Take a Treatment?
A nebulizer is the optimal delivery method of medication to the lungs. However, some users
may find it difficult to use, especially very young children. In this case, an aerosol mask
may be used. To ensure that the proper mask is utilized, please consult your home health
provider or physician.
The most important aspect of taking a treatment is the patient's breathing pattern while
inhaling the medication mist.
It should be slow and deep, all attempts should be made to sit up straight and breathe in
deep.
A general rule of thumb is to attempt to breathe in so deeply that it feels as though the
lungs are completely full of air and inhaling any additional air is impossible.
If possible, hold your breath for 1-2 seconds unless directed otherwise by your physician
and then slowly exhale through the nebulizer mouthpiece or mask. Holding your breath for
1-2 seconds after inhaling the medication allows for optimal absorption of medication in the
lungs.
Repeat this breathing pattern for the entire treatment.
The length of a treatment can last anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes, depending on the
amount of medication and the performance of your compressor and nebulizer system.
When you cannot see any medication in the nebulizer cup and the nebulizer has stopped
producing a mist, the treatment has been completed. Turn off your compressor and follow
the cleaning instructions found in this instruction guide.
If you have any additional questions regarding your equipment, medication, or treatment,
please consult your physician.
