Order of nebulizing and neb cups.

@rmoore901 When I have used multiple meds, I just rinsed the neb cups with filtered water in between and washed at the end.
The bronchodilator, Brovana, should be used first to open airways. Then the saline and airway clearance. I was taught to use the steroid last, Pulmicort, after airway clearance, so it would stay in my lungs.
Did the doctor suggest their preferred order?

@sueinmn thank you for that information, the order makes sense. I usually bring all my notes with me to the office but didn’t think at the time to ask about the order as I was more focused about the review and changes showing on my CT scan. I like your approach of a quick rinse in between as that would be much easier to manage.
