Very often, young children and adults suffer from respiratory diseases. If you start treatment right away, you can quickly recover, but what if the child fails to give a pill or syrup, because they can simply spit them out? But thanks to modern technologies and developments, such a unique device as the Omron C-24 inhaler has appeared, which allows you to cure or prevent acute or chronic upper respiratory tract pathologies in a short time without harm to he alth.
Omron nebulizer: what is it?
Compressor nebulizer "Omron C20" and C-24 are the latest generation devices. These devices are distinguished by their light weight, compactness and convenient way of use. They are considered the only ones that allow you to apply the drug directly to the focus of the disease - the respiratory tract.
The drug enters the site of the inflammatory process in a short time and the effect of the procedure can be noticeable immediately after the end of the procedure. In order to use the device, you do not need to know a special breathing technique, which is why it is recommended to use it in the therapy of the youngest children,elderly or disabled patients who cannot take the medicine.
Due to the fact that during the creation of such a convenient device as the Omron C-24 nebulizer, Virtual Valve Techology technology was used, it was possible to significantly save the treatment solution, which, as a result, even with a small volume of the drug container (7 ml) is enough for a full-fledged procedure that gives the best therapeutic effect.
The fine solution makes this device effective even in the treatment of diseases where the lower respiratory tract is affected. But in this device there are slight restrictions on the use of drugs, so it is not recommended to use oils and decoctions with visible particles.
When is a nebulizer recommended?
The Omron C-24 inhaler is used to treat colds and infectious pathologies of the upper and lower respiratory tract, including:
- rhinitis;
- laryngitis;
- sinusitis;
- pharyngitis;
- cystic fibrosis;
- tracheitis;
- pneumonia;
- chronic obstructive pulmonary disease;
- bronchitis.
In addition, the inhaler is also recommended for the prevention of various kinds of chronic ailments, including:
- bronchial asthma;
- tuberculosis;
- allergy.
As a result of the use of a compressor inhaler, the respiratory tract is moistened, which makes it easier to expel sputum andgeneral condition of the patient.
The principle of operation of the nebulizer
The Omron C-24 nebulizer is designed not only to irrigate the patient's throat with medicine, but also to turn the drug into a fine aerosol that penetrates into the lowest parts of the respiratory tract, where a conventional inhaler does not reach. But so far, the creators of this unique device have not been able to solve one of the most important problems - the direct dependence of the size of aerosol particles and restrictions on the use of certain drugs.
And the whole point is that the smaller the particle of the drug, the deeper it will penetrate into the body and thereby significantly increase the effect of therapy. But oil-based medicines cannot turn into such a suspension, which is why the Omron C-24 inhaler, the instructions confirm this, must be filled with water-based medicines.
Nebulizer Benefits

In addition, the absence of small parts greatly saves processing time, reduces the cost of purchasing drugs and simplifies the operation of the device.
