Most effective method delivery of drugs to the respiratory system is inhalation. To do the procedure at home, you need to purchase a nebulizer, its other name is an inhaler. It will help with acute respiratory diseases, in the complex therapy of diseases of the upper and lower respiratory tract, as well as with allergies. But for the device to be useful, it must be chosen correctly.

How to choose a nebulizer

The essence of the nebulizer's work is the splitting of a liquid with a medicinal preparation into a fine vapor and its supply to the respiratory organs - in the form of drops of the agent it settles in the trachea and pharynx, is quickly absorbed and begins to act, bypassing the digestive system, unlike tablets.

According to the principle of splitting liquids, nebulizers are divided into 4 main groups:

1. Steam work on the principle of direct evaporation of the liquid due to heating. The devices are unpopular with physicians - in the vast majority of cases, it is pointless to use drugs with steam evaporators, the drugs lose their medicinal properties. The devices are suitable for preventive therapy with folk methods.
2. Compressor inhalers force air into the tube and it is fed into the medicine container through a very narrow hole, where the drug solution is separated into small drops.
3. Ultrasonic nebulizers create high-frequency waves that split the liquid into a fine fraction with minimal energy loss. At the same time, the size of the droplets becomes so small that the vapors effortlessly reach not only the upper, but also the lower respiratory tract. Please note: not all drugs are suitable for use with ultrasonic nebulizers, read the instructions for the drug.
4. Mesh nebulizers split the liquid by means of a vibrating membrane with a mesh. They do not affect the structure of the drug, they create drops of a minimum size, the main drawback of the devices is the highest price among similar devices.

Compatibility of nebulizers with types of medicines:

Device type	Noise level, dB	Medication access area	Suitable drugs
		Upper parts of the nasopharynx	Herbal decoctions, essential oils, mineral water and saline
Compressor		Upper, middle and lower parts of the nasopharynx and larynx	Mucolytics, antibiotics, hormonal drugs
Ultrasonic			Saline and alkaline solutions, bronchodilators, glucocorticosteroids
Mesh nebulizer			Any drugs intended for inhalation

Inhalers differ in the shape of the case: they can be compact devices powered by batteries, or separate units that require connection to electrical network, fixed devices. For children, manufacturers develop nebulizers in a bright case with funny images or in the form of a train, a whale and others that are understandable to a child. Thus, the healing process is combined with the elements of the game.

EXPERTOLOGY experts have identified the best inhalers in the categories of compressor, ultrasonic and mesh nebulizers, selected according to user reviews and ranked these devices.

Compressor-type inhalers spray liquid preparations by supplying compressed air into the container. Their advantage is fine spraying, the drugs are delivered to the lower respiratory tract, the drugs almost do not change their structure. The devices are powered by the mains, so the procedures are carried out near the outlet.

First in the ranking compressor inhaler Japanese-made Omron Comp Air NE-C28, which sprays up to 7 ml of medicinal solutions in 14 minutes into steam with particle sizes up to 3 microns, transported to the bronchi and trachea. At the same time, it does not overheat, the duration of the procedures does not affect the wear of the engine and compressor. The inhalation chamber is equipped with two Virtual Valve Technology (V.V.T.) valves, which allows you to spray more liquid at a time and make the treatment more effective.

Consider the features of its use and recommendations for the treatment of various diseases.

How does the AND compressor inhaler work?

The device was created on the basis of ultrasonic waves that transform liquid medical drugs into an aerosol. The microscopic composition freely reaches the most remote places of damage to the respiratory system.

The second name of the inhaler is a nebulizer. This name comes from the Latin word "nebula", which translates as "cloudy" or "fog". AND is an inhaler that is used in various fields of medicine, including pulmonology and allergology.

The device effectively affects the bronchi, even with their narrowing. The patient does not need to concentrate on adjusting inhalation and exhalation while taking the drug. The maximum effect is achieved due to the local accumulation of the drug in right place, taking into account the fact that the intake is carried out in small doses.

Ultrasonic or compressor inhaler?
Compressor and ultrasonic inhalers - nebulizers do not exclude, but rather complement each other. If we talk about their advantages and disadvantages, then each model has its pros and cons. Compressor inhalers can work with any medicine, but they are quite noisy and bulky, so it is almost impossible to take them with you on the road.

Ultrasonic nebulizers are able to fit in a pocket or purse, and are virtually silent during operation, but there are some restrictions on the choice of drugs. It is known that ultrasound, by which the solution of the drug is converted into an aerosol, destroys some of the active ingredients of the drugs, for example, some types of antibiotics and hormones. Therefore, be sure to consult your doctor before buying an inhaler, especially when it comes to treating a child.

Everyone knows that little children get sick very often and how much time and effort mothers need to cope with all their bo-bos. There is a need to treat and alleviate the painful symptoms of the child.

I learned about nebulizers from my friend - a wonderful advanced mom. She often helps me with advice, I must say, very practical, so I completely trust her.

So what can this device do? With it, we can carry out preventive and therapeutic procedures of the upper and lower respiratory tract (with laryngitis, laryngotracheitis, bronchitis, lung diseases, bronchial asthma, SARS).

How? With the help of inhalations with various medicinal (non-oily) products intended specifically for inhalations and sold in pharmacies in the public domain (antibiotics, mucolytics, hormonal drugs). You still need physical solution for inhalation, for diluting the drug and its better spraying by the device. The average particle size of the aerosol is 4 µm, the spray rate is 0.2 ml/min. The dosage and number of procedures should be indicated to you by your doctor. A couple of doctor's tips and you will be free to navigate in matters of medical procedures.)))

Why A&D Medical CN-231 inhaler? Despite the advice from the outside, I always turn to the Internet in search of reviews, find out the cost and possible ways acquisitions. My goal was to acquire a high-quality, powerful and multifunctional device capable of spraying the medicine very finely and under sufficient pressure so that it could reach the bronchi and lungs.

Price ... Compared to some inhalers, it's not small. I purchased it at a pharmacy with a guarantee for 3800 = + medicine + physical. solution. Now I see, on some sites you can buy cheaper.

And so, he is mine!

The weight of the device is 1.5 kg, it is very stable (it stands on 4 rubberized legs) and cute. Operated by one button and has the function compressor overheating protection , which allows two "patients" to carry out the procedure in turn. Then decontaminate respiratory masks and immediately continue the procedure for everyone. The silicone mask captures the child's nose and mouth.

The set includes a mouthpiece, a silicone connecting tube, a medicine container, and air filters.

During the procedure, keep the flask with the mask only in an upright position, otherwise the medicine may leak out of the flask.

The instruction is more than easy to understand, written in large print and with detailed step-by-step illustrations.

Every family with children should have a nebulizer. Previously, at the first sign of a cold, children and adults breathed over the steam, which often led to injury. Now everything is much simpler, you can not take medicines, but breathe them.
