1. INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Easy Neb Compressor Nebulizer. It is a compact medical
device designed to efficiently deliver physician prescribed medication to the bronchial lung
passages. With proper care and use, it will provide you with many years of reliable
treatment.
This product is developed for successful treatment of asthma, allergies and other
respiratory disorders. It creates a stream of air that travels through a clear tube to the
nebulizer. When air enters the nebulizer, it will convert the prescribed medication into an
aerosol mist for easy inhalation.
Your Easy Neb Compressor Nebulizer should be used under the supervision of a licensed
physician and/or a respiratory therapist. We encourage you to thoroughly read this
guidebook to learn about the features of this product. Any use of this product other than its
