Waiting between nebulizing

No need to wait.

Good question. I just started nebbing 7% after my pulmonologist recommended I try it during the winter. I haven’t waited so I looked.

“I just got back from NJH and you do not need to wait any certain time in between. I nebulize Levalbuterol first and then Sodium Chloride immediately after and in that order.”

I have the VIOS green Pari compressor. Pari said the compressor could not be run longer than 35 minutes to function properly. Then after it is run to let it cool down 30 minutes before running again. So, I ordered a second compressor from Direct Home Medical online (the most reasonable price -must have your Rx from doctor to provide). With two compressors I can be assured they won't burn our when I do back to back nebulizing of Levalbuterol followed by sodium chloride.

Talk to your doctor. My lung doc suggests no time gap between the two meds. Good luck.

I can do back to back nebulizing but Pari, the compressor company, said the compressor would be at risk of burning out the motor if run for more than 35 minutes. So, I bought another compressor to do back to back nebulizing.

I so much appreciate that you looked this up for me. Thanks!

I nebulize .9% saline with low dose atrovent twice a day

Pari makes the ProNeb Max and you can run it longer. So that would be another option.

has anyone done stem cell or looked into it? and if so,
where and what were you told? ( not by a regular dr. but
by the stem cell co.)

What are you thinking of using stem cell therapy for? Do you have MAC or bronchiectasis? What other therapies have you tried?

Remember, stem cell therapy is very much in the infant stages of development. When commercial companies tout very preliminary research in order to sell you expensive, uninsured and unproven therapies, are they "ahead of the pack" or are they exploiting people?

At this point, there is no specific research "in vivo" (inside the body) that supports the theories about stem cells improve or reverse COPD or other chronic lung disease. But studies are in the works - watch for developments here or in places like the American Lung Foundation. Commercial concerns that are selling stem cell therapy are not engaged in rigorous scientific research.
