How to Use a Nebuliser at Home | Dr. Sushila Kataria | Medanta, Gurugram

Описание: A nebuliser is commonly used to deliver medication directly into the lungs, especially in conditions such as asthma, COPD and other respiratory illnesses. Dr. Sushila Kataria explains that using a nebuliser correctly at home ensures effective symptom relief and better disease control.

Begin by washing your hands thoroughly. Assemble the nebuliser machine as instructed and pour the prescribed dose of medication into the medicine cup. Attach the mask or mouthpiece securely. Sit upright in a comfortable position and switch on the machine. Breathe slowly and deeply through your mouth until the medication mist stops, which usually takes around 10 to 15 minutes.

After completing the session, switch off the machine and clean the mask, mouthpiece and medicine cup with warm water. Allow the parts to air dry completely before storing them. Regular cleaning helps prevent infection and ensures the device functions properly.

Dr. Kataria advises using the nebuliser strictly as prescribed and not altering the dosage without medical consultation. If symptoms worsen or do not improve, seek medical advice promptly.

Correct technique and regular maintenance of the device are key to safe and effective home nebulisation therapy.
