Problem/Question
The nebulizer bottle pro-
duces little or no aerosol.
Output is too low.
Which medicines are
suitable for inhalation?
Some inhalation solution
remains in the nebulizer
bottle.
What special steps should
be taken for babies and
children?
Inhalation with the mask
takes longer.
Why do I need to replace
the nebulizer at regular
intervals?
Does each person need
their own nebulizer bottle?
Possible Cause/Remedy
1. Too much or too little medication in the nebulizer bottle.
Minimum: 2 ml, maximum: 8 ml, recommended: 5 ml
2. Check that the nozzles are not blocked. If necessary, clean the nozzle
(e.g. by rinsing). Use the nebulizer bottle again.
Caution: Only poke implements through the fine holes from the under-
side of the nozzle.
3. The nebulizer bottle is not held in an upright position.
4. The medicine solution is unsuitable for nebulizing (e.g. too thick).
The medicine solution should be specified by the doctor.
Air tube kinked, filter blocked, too much inhalation solution.
Consult your doctor.
Essentially all medicines that are suitable and approved for device-based
inhalation can be inhaled.
This is normal and occurs for technical reasons. Stop inhalation if you
hear a notable difference in the noise of the nebulizer bottle.
1. In babies, the mask should cover the mouth and nose to guarantee
effective inhalation.
2. In children, the mask should also cover the mouth and nose. Nebuliza-
tion next to a sleeping person is not suitable because insufficient medi-
cine reaches the lungs.
Note: Children should only use the device with help and under supervi-
sion of an adult. Never leave a child alone with the nebulizer.
This is for technical reasons. Less medicine is inhaled per breath through
the mask holes than using the mouthpiece. The aerosol is mixed with
ambient air through the holes in the mask.
There are two reasons for this:
1. To guarantee a therapeutically effective particle spectrum, the nozzle
holes should not exceed a certain diameter. Due to the thermal and me-
chanical stresses, the plastic is subjected to a certain amount of wear.
The nebulizer bottle is particularly sensitive. This can also cause changes
to the droplet composition of the aerosol, which has a direct effect on the
effectiveness of the treatment.
2. You are also recommended to replace the nebulizer bottle on a regular
basis for hygiene reasons.
This is absolutely necessary for hygiene reasons.
