New PARI Nebulizer Options Coming Our Way?

Posted by scoop @scoop, Oct 5 12:45pm

PARI has introduced some new nebulizer products that, for now, appear to be available only in Europe. The new portable PARI BOY Go appears to be available only in Germany at this point.

I’d love to see these products introduced in the USA sooner rather than later, although I realize there are regulatory and other hurdles that have to be cleared first.

It might be possible for someone traveling to Europe or Germany to purchase one or both of these devices, although I don’t know what issues there might be with bringing them back to the USA, power compatibility, warranties, replacement parts, etc.

PARI BOY Go:

eFlow rapid nebulizer system, smaller new controller:

If anyone has information or experience with either of these newer products, please post any details here.

Since bronchiectasis is a lifelong condition, it’s encouraging to see continued development of nebulizer technology. Anything that can make our daily treatment routines faster, easier, or more portable could make a meaningful difference in managing the disease over the long term.

Does anyone know if this is available in France? I live in the US, but travel to France once or twice a year and would love to be able to purchase this over there.

check on the French amazon site. As noted above, it's available to US today from the amazon.de (Germany) site. Currently, Euro exchange rate is favorable towards dollar, but there's VAT, shipping etc. Around $154, and if you were to purchase it in Germany via Amazon it would be 99Euros, which is $110.

@scoop If anyone finds a way to purchase this, please share. I spoke to Amazon customer service in Germany, and they said you must have a German payment method. I spoke to PARI customer service and they said it is not available in the US, and cannot be exported at this time.

I purchased it yesterday from Amazon.de. I did have to take a BIG gulp when I saw the additional cost of shipping/VAT it to the US! But with quite a bit of travel coming up, I decided it was worth it. Having only 2 pieces to sterilize, compared with 6 for the eRapid, should make things easier while traveling. At least that’s my hope!

At the bottom of the order email notification, there's this: This e-mail is only an acknowledgement of receipt of your order. Your contract to purchase these items is not complete until we send you an e-mail notifying you that the items have been dispatched.

So you might be right but I hope not!

@scoop May I ask - What method of payment did you use?

Update, I was trying to order earlier today using my mobile app. I just placed an order on my desktop using the same Visa card that was denied earlier, it appears to have been processed, with a delivery date of October 23rd.

Hope we receive the orders!

Crossing that bridge when I get to it! Assuming the sale goes through on the amazon.de website, I figure I will have more than 1 year to figure out replacement heads since it won't be my main nebulizer.

@scoop, Please let us know how you like it. My big trip is in January, and I have a little time to linger.

Great! I received an email saying that it has been dispatched, so it's on its way. I was worried it may have been cancelled, but money is money....
