Sue, can you go over that protocol again please. I usually nebulize my albuterol first, then right after nebulize the 7% saline. And you’re right it takes 30-40 mins to do both then there is 10 mins or so for PEP device. Twice a day!!! Now I’m not on Symbicort, but have albuterol rescue inhaler. So I would use albuterol inhaler with spacer 2 or 3 puffs, then wait 15 mins and nebulize 7% saline? Does that sound right?

Exactly! If breathing is not tight, sometimes one puff of albuterol is enough,
