Quiet nebulizer options. is there a good, very quiet, nebulizer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ultrasonic nebulizer: Most ultrasonic nebulizers (like eflow) are very quiet and deliver the medication very quickly. Also the particle size generated from these nebulizers allows the medication to travel down the airways into the deeper parts of the lungs where it needs to go to exert its effects.
