I've been using the Pari eRapid for over a year now and I've learned a few things about it that I wanted to share, of course we're all different but this is what I've found works for me:
-The eRapid provides a LOT of saline in a rapid amount of time, it definitely helps me release sputum however the issue was that I began having increased bleeding. Here's what I did to change my nebbing:
-I don't use the eRapid every day, usually only about 2 or 3 days a week and I never use it twice in a day. I choose to use it when I'm in a rush or for travel. Recently I had a flight layover, and I was glad to have it with me!
-A lot of saline is lost in the mist while nebulizing so I often use 2 vials, however, I use 3% for this large rapid dose because 7% consistently would cause bleeding for me.
Hope this helps! Take care, Nancy

Thank you! That’s helpful.

After my second day using the eRapid, I had a dream that my lungs were bleeding. Maybe not so far-fetched after all.

I might try 3% solution with it, just for “research”.
