In my opinion the inhalers are ok to be used as a maintenance inhaler like Breztri but the emergency inhaler should be used as needed. The nebulizer is good for exacerbation and flare ups because I feel that you get more medicine down in the lungs and it will give you relief faster than the inhaler.

I agree, the nebulizers will probably get to the lungs more effectively than the inhalers, but what a pain to use them. I try to schedule preventative treatments prior to getting the symptoms of shortness of breath and/or unrelenting coughing spells. Seems to help some.
