Product Questions
Which type of nebuliser is recommended for children?
When it comes to selecting the right nebuliser for children, it's best to prioritize kid-friendly attributes. That's why the penguin-shaped nebuliser stands out as an excellent choice. Not only does its adorable design appeal to kids, but its durable pump with over 2000 hours of service life ensures uninterrupted treatment sessions.
With wide medication compliance, including popular medications like Ventolin and Salbutamol, parents can have peace of mind knowing that their child's specific needs are catered to. Additionally, the single-button operation and low-noise compressor pump make it user-friendly and comfortable for children, ensuring a hassle-free experience during treatments.
The mesh nebuliser, on the other hand, is also good for kids because of its lightweight design and easy operation.

Which is better for kids, mask or mouthpiece?
Several factors should be considered. Masks are suitable for children who struggle with mouthpieces and those unable to hold them. They offer a continuous medication supply but may cause discomfort and obstruct vision.
In contrast, mouthpieces provide a stronger therapeutic effect, ensuring medication reaches deep into the bronchial tubes. They are easier to clean and more durable but require consistent breathing technique, and medication delivery continues even when the mouthpiece is removed.

Which is better for kids, inhaler, nasal steamer or nebuliser?
When deciding, it is important to weigh the pros and cons:
- Inhalers offer portability and quick medication delivery, but require coordination.
- Nebulizers ensure a high percentage of medication reaches the lungs, though they are bulkier and require longer treatments.
- Nasal steamers provide relief from congestion but lack targeted medication delivery. Consulting healthcare providers can help make the best choice for your child's needs.
