Nebulizer treatment

A nebulizer is a device that changes a medication from a liquid to a mist so that is easily inhaled into the lungs. Nebulizer treatments are most commonly used by asthma patients, young and small children, and for those who have difficulty using an inhaler. A nebulizer treatment can also be called a “breathing treatment”. In order to get a nebulizer machine, you need a prescription from your doctor. Most insurance companies cover the expense of the nebulizer, but without insurance the machine can cost anywhere from $50 to $250.
