Aerobika/nebulizer cleaning question

@128128terry11t I use mine once a day but when I did use it twice I only cleaned it once after the second use. I use the Aerobika in combination with inhaled saline and my nebulizer. After I am done inhaling I fill a bowl with hot soapy water and stick it in there to soak. I just leave it until whenever I get back to it because I have two and can rotate but I think I read it only needs to soak about 10 minutes. Then rinse and dry. I also use those sterilizer bags you can get on Amazon and sterilize them about once a week in the microwave. Super easy.

When I soak it I just use regular water. When I sterilize it I use distilled water. The times i used the Aerobika twice a day I wasn't using the nebulizer with it. I believe I just wiped it and set it aside. Now if I used it with the nebulizer and saline I'd probably rinse it because it gets all that saline residue in it.

Another couple of questions: do you rinse aerobika/nebulizer in distilled or regular water? And do you sterilize the nebulizer in the microwave sterilizer bags as well as the aerobika? Am I correct that when you used aerobika/nebulizer twice a day, after the first usage you just set it aside and did not even rinse? These are such helpful hints. Thank you. Terry
