Yes, I would highly recommend using both and also including the Aerobika at the same time, 2x daily. I was diagnosed a year ago, and have been able to get rid of most of the bacteria without any antibiotics . I went to National Jewish last November and Dr Huitt told me it was possible to get rid of the bacteria (for some people) with really good airway clearance. My last culture results from February show that I only have 10 colonies and it had been as high as 200. National Jewish said they do not usually treat if the colony count is under 100. I would be very diligent in doing airway clearance.
