Well, there's the compressor and then the nebulizer. If you purchase them from either SaveRiteMedical.com or MedicaleShop.com , no prescription necessary. Nebology.com is a PARI company and only sells PARI products; they require prescriptions. There are others as well and most of them require prescriptions.
Presently, I use the Ombra compressor with AeroEclipse or Pari Sprint nebulizers with the Aerobika (oscillating positive expiratory pressure device). I alternate but tend towards the Sprint since it's a bit faster than AeroEclipse. I neb levalbuterol and then 7% saline. Then I use the autogenic drainage app to assist with clearance.
Curious why your mesh nebulizer would not work with 7% saline?

Thank you for your suggestions and input. I have no idea why my mesh nebulizer would not work with 7% saline. I found another mesh nebulizer. I emailed the company to ask and verify that their mesh nebulizer would effectively nebulize 7%. They guaranteed me that it would with no problems. After two minutes it cutoff and would not cutback on.
I emailed the company two or three times. They never responded. I disputed the charge with my credit card company and mailed the mesh nebulizer back to the company. I prefer mesh because, typically they are faster and certainly more quiet.
Approximately how long does the nebulizing, using the Aerobika, which I also have, then airway clearance take you and sterilizing the equipment? I find that it’s a long and tiring process, although it’s productive and, I know necessary.
Again, I appreciate you responding and the recommendations.
