Choosing a nebulizer for an infant or young child is easier when you know what to check. Here is a simple checklist for parents.
1. Masks and mouthpiece
Look for a nebulizer that comes with a child mask as well as an adult mask and a mouthpiece, so the whole family can use the same device. The LifeCare Portable Mesh Nebulizer includes a child mask, an adult mask and a mouthpiece.
2. Power options
A device that works on both batteries and USB keeps you ready when you are away from a socket. The LifeCare Portable Mesh Nebulizer has dual power operation, and the LC-608 is USB rechargeable.
3. Easy cleaning
You will clean the nebulizer often, so a hygienic design matters. The LC-608 has a split design and an automatic self-cleaning function.
4. Size and weight
A compact, lightweight device fits in a baby bag or even a pocket, so it is there when you need it.
