What are your recommendations for travel nebulizer?

Posted by terryb1 @128128terry11t, Aug 22, 2017

A few months ago there were some emails about what to take and do when traveling. Someone from the NYC support group recommended the PariTrekS portable nebulizer. I ordered it from Just Nebulizers. When I ordered this I inquired at Just Nebulizers if this could be used with an aerobika. They referred me to Pari and its spokesperson could not definitively endorse their product with an aerobika. I got the same sense that Katherine always got that they didn't want to recommend a competitor nor endorse something for fear of liability. In any case, it can operate as an efficient nebulizer with a small compressor for travel. I ordered mine with a battery. The battery (not really needed) came defective and neither Just Nebulizers or Pari would give me a refund. Pari will be sending a replacement but as mentioned, battery is really not necessary. Hope this is helpful for the travelers on our forum. Terry

At home I use the Ombra with the AeroeclipseXL and my Aerobika attached. When I travel I have a Pari Trek S that works with my AeroeclipseXL with the Aerobika. It is slightly smaller and you can get it with a rechargeable battery.

If you travel by air, do you pack your Pari Trek S in your carry on or in checked luggage? I have the same routine you do using the Ombra at home with the Aerobika attached. I just purchased the Pari Trek S for an upcoming trip to Florida. Just wondering if TSA has a problem with the Pari Trek S in carry on luggage.

I always carry my nebulizer, 7 days of solutions, and all my meds on. Too much danger of lost or delayed luggage. And, at times I have needed to neb between flights.

Thanks, Sue. I assume you had no issues with TSA carrying vials of solutions.

I cut the label off the box, put the vials, label and copy of the Rx label in a clear zipper bag. My daughter just came back from a trip that included 4 flights, and had no issue doing this either.
