Anyone have any nebulizer recommendations?

Sue,
I do not own a PARI Trek. I am thinking about buying one. I wanted to know how long it takes to nebulize on one before I purchase it.
I do own a Pari ProNeb which takes an hour to neubulize a vile of saline.
Thanks,
Sally

Same advice for the ProNeb - no nebulizer is that slow if working correctly. Yours has a 5 year warranty, and if it older than that, the compressor is porbably worn out.
Also, I find the Sprint nebulizers themselves to be "putzy" - sometimes malfunction or need adjusting to deliver the meds. I prefer the cheaper (but reusable) ones like they use in the hospital - much faster. I buy them 10 at a time, use 2 in rotation, wash daily & sterilize once a week. Just a personal preference - for me, simpler is better.
