SECTION 6—CLEANING AND
DISINFECTING
Following the cleaning instructions after each use will prevent any
remaining medication in the bottle from drying and causing the device to
nebulize ineffectively.
It is recommended that the reusable nebulizer and the mouthpiece be
thoroughly rinsed with hot tap water after each use and cleaned with a
mild detergent after the last treatment of the day. The same pieces MUST
also be disinfected daily by soaking in a vinegar/water solution or a
commercially available disinfectant. If your physician or respiratory
therapist specifies a different cleaning procedure, follow their
instructions.
