A member asked:
Is it ok to use a warm steam vaporizer on a 6 month baby with a cough and how long should i leave it on for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Most warm steam vaporizers have been tossed in the trash heap as a danger. Modern vaporizers use tuning force technology to generate mist at room temperature. They pose no risk of burning the house down. These can run continuously.
