What can I use instead of Salsol 2.5 mg for a nebulizer? It's nowhere to be found in the market. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it since my brother really needs it due to his severe bronchitis. Is there any supplier who might have it?

My father recently had aneurysm surgery and also has a hernia along with diabetes. His doctors suggested a sleep study, which showed he has sleep apnea. Now we're not sure which specialist to see for this should it be a pulmonologist, neurologist, or physician? He already has multiple health issues, so we want to make sure we consult the right doctor for his sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea is best managed by a pulmonologist; they coordinate CPAP therapy and monitor breathing‚Äîimportant especially with heart and diabetic issues.
