Good hygiene should always be followed (hand washing or clean nitrile gloves). | |
Remove nebuliser compressor from case and place on a flat surface. Do not place on a carpet or bedding as this may block the air intake vents. | |
Attach one end of the flexible tubing to the compressor and the other end to the medicine container. | |
Switch on for a few seconds to ensure there are no blockages in the system. | |
Select the prescribed medicine to be used and check the expiry date and dose. Do not use an open or damaged ampoule. | |
Add medication to the chamber and attach mouthpiece or face mask. |
