Potable Nebulizers are small machines that convert liquid asthma medication into an aerosolized mist that gets inhaled directly into the lungs. These devices can be used to deliver maintenance treatment to keep asthma under control or during an asthma attack to halt symptoms such as wheezing.
If you or your child use a nebulizer to manage asthma or another chronic respiratory condition at home, you may want to consider investing in a portable unit for travel or day trips. Portable nebulizers come in three main types: compressor, vibrating mesh and ultrasonic.
