The ultrasonic inhaler reviews get wonderful also because it can be carried everywhere: the small weight and size are quite practical. In addition, the kit includes nozzles, using which you can conduct procedures for sleeping people or lying.
• Compressor inhalator. Reviews about this device are less enthusiastic because of its large size and the noise it produces in the process. But still the principle of its action is almost identical to the previous device. The advantage of this type of inhaler is that with their help it is possible to spray all possible medicinal compounds that are only used for such procedures.
• The electron-mesh inhaler has recently gained popularity. This is a new type of device that allows you to use previously used drugs for the procedures, for example, mucolytics, antibiotics, hormones. It is also able to absorb oil-containing solutions.
