I'm feeling a bit worried because I've been having shortness of breath and a mild cough for the past two days, though my temperature and oxygen levels are normal. I have a nebulizer at homeshould I be using it? If so, what kind of medicine or combination should I use with it?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
If you are experiencing breathing shortness and a mild cough, using a nebulizer at home can help with your symptoms. You can use a combination of albuterol sulfate and ipratropium bromide in the nebulizer. Remember to follow the instructions provided with your nebulizer for proper use.
