Asthma: Asthma becomes apparent by frequent, spasmodic gasping for air and wheezing. As with chronic bronchitis, the bronchi are inflamed and obstructed with phlegm while the cilia are conglutinated. The respiratory passages also respond to certain stimuli with muscular spasms, often caused by allergens such as pollen or house dust, but also stress and environmental pollution.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a type of obstructive lung disease characterized by long-term poor airflow. The main symptoms include shortness of breath and cough with sputum production. COPD is a progressive disease, meaning it typically worsens over time. Eventually everyday activities, such as walking up stairs, become difficult. Chronic bronchitis and emphysema are older terms used for different types of COPD.

• Reassemble the nebulizer kit by carefully twisting the medication cup and cover together, making sure that the two parts fit securely
Operating your nebulizer:
• The nebulizer kit is operable at up to a 45° angle – if the angle is greater than 45°, no aerosol will be generated
• Attach one end of the air tube connector to the air output
• Carefully attach the opposite end of the air tubing connector to the stem at the base of the nebulizer kit
• Attach the angled mouthpiece or mask to the top of the nebulizer kit
• The capacity of the medication cup is 2~5 ml.
• NOTE: A 30-minute interval is recommended after each use.
• The compressor will automatically shut off if it becomes overheated. If / when this happens, immediately press the power-switch to the “OFF” position, unplug the power cord from the outlet and allow the motor to cool for 30 minutes.
