treatment of the upper and lower respiratory tract.
The nebulisation and inhalation of medication pre-
scribed or recommended by a doctor can prevent
against diseases of the respiratory tract, treat the side
effects of these disorders and accelerate healing.
For more information on possible applications, consult
your doctor or pharmacist.
