Portable rechargeable nebulizer recommendations

Posted by grammyvictoria @grammyvictoria, 16 hours ago

Any recommendations for portable battery-or rechargeable nebulizers?
It's hard to get two news in on days when I'm not at home for long.

I just bought the "Take a Breath Portable Handheld Mesh Nebulizer" from a local medical supply company. It was about $100. Seems to work well. The brand name was "Blue Jay".

@barrywayne How do you sterilize it? The main shortfall with the inexpensive mesh nebulizers is no way to sterilize, making them unsafe to use.

You raise a good point. The instructions say to disinfect by soaking parts in 2% hydrogen peroxide for 10 minutes. I purchased this for traveling. I did not realize the issue with mesh nebulizers. I am learning more from just being on this Mayo Connect for less than a week. So, I'm kind of back to square one. It seems no two nebulizers are the same.
