Nebulizer time should be made as comfortable as possible. It is a delicate situation and your kid will be feeling helpless, but they should be taught about the importance of using a nebulizer and a pediatric nebulizer mask. Choosing a quality pediatric nebulizer mask is very important because your child’s life depends on it. Nebulizers usually come with either a mouthpiece or a facemask. You can make your choice depending on what your child is going to be comfortable with. If your kid is under 3 years of age, then you have to buy a pediatric nebulizer mask. They wont be able to use a mouthpiece efficiently. It is true that some amount of medicine is wasted while using a facemask, but this is the only favorable option when they have asthma. Encourage your child to take long and deep breaths when using the face mask. Sudden inhaling of the medicine could cause light-headedness. You can use the pediatric nebulizer mask when your child is asleep also.
You should be cleaning the pediatric nebulizer mask once a week, if it is used frequently. Rinse in warm water, don’t boil it. Dismantle all the parts of the nebulizer and clean them one by one.
