I agree that it’s best to check with his physician when he sees him in May. I find my sodium chloride 7% 4mL vial takes approximately 13-15 min. I don’t know if using the Aerobika with the aeroeclipse has shortened that time because that’s the way I have always used it. I find using the sodium chloride the way I am doing it helps clear out my post nasal drip. Interesting question about the mask. I hope they do have something compatible with the Ombra. Good luck

Thank you. Turns out I was wrong when I said it takes my dad about 20 mins now with his new OMBRA/Aeroeclipse neb compared to 5 mins (using mesh) when using 4 ml of 7% sodium chloride, he said it’s only ~15 mins. Sounds like it takes about the same time with or without the Aerobika attached. Monaghan says they do offer a mask that my dad can use with his Aeroeclipse in place of the mouthpiece, but Renee is waiting to hear back from their reps in the St Pete area to let us know where we can get one. Apparently Monaghan typically only sell them to hospitals since most home users don’t request/prefer a mask like my dad does. Should hear back from her tomorrow. Thanks for sharing feedback regarding your combination helps clear out post nasal drip too. That’s helpful for my dad to know. We truly appreciate all of the assistance you’ve provided - we understand far more than we did just a few days ago regarding nebulizing. May God bless you & yours!
