Powerful Performance in a Compact Design

Don't let its small size fool you. The MEDNEB utilizes a reliable piston compressor to efficiently transform medication into a fine mist of particles. These tiny particles, typically less than 5 microns in size, can travel deep into your lungs for targeted treatment. This compact design makes it ideal for discreet use at home or easy storage when traveling.

Flexibility and Convenience

The MEDNEB nebulizer system comes standard with both a disposable and a reusable nebulizer kit. The disposable nebulizer cups offer a convenient option for quick and easy treatments, while the reusable nebulizer provides a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative. You can choose the nebulizer cup that best suits your needs and preferences.

Effective Medication Delivery

At the heart of the MEDNEB system lies its piston-driven compressor. This technology efficiently converts liquid medication into a fine mist for easy inhalation. This fine mist reaches deep into your lungs, delivering targeted medication for faster and more effective relief from respiratory conditions like asthma, COPD, and cystic fibrosis.

Unmatched Convenience

The MEDNEB system prioritizes your comfort and ease of use. Its compact design takes up minimal space on your desk or bedside table, making it ideal for even the most limited environments. The included 7-foot kink-resistant tubing allows for comfortable positioning during treatment, while the extra filters ensure optimal performance and efficient medication delivery.

Important Tips for Using Your Drive MEDNEB Compressor Nebulizer

MEDNEB Nebulizer System

The Drive MEDNEB Nebulizer System combines power and portability, making it an excellent choice for individuals requiring regular respiratory therapy. Its piston-driven compressor ensures that medication is efficiently converted into a fine mist, which can be easily inhaled into the lungs for fast relief.

Setting Up Your Nebulizer

Assemble the Equipment: Attach the air tubing from the compressor to the nebulizer cup. Make sure all connections are secure to prevent any leaks.
Prepare Your Medication: Fill the nebulizer cup with the prescribed amount of medication. If you are using a disposable nebulizer kit, make sure it is properly assembled according to the instructions.
Connect the Mouthpiece or Mask: Attach your choice of mouthpiece or mask to the nebulizer cup. This should be done snugly to ensure no medication escapes during treatment.

Operating Your Nebulizer

Start the Treatment: Turn on the compressor with the on/off switch. You will see the medication begin to mist. Inhale the mist deeply and steadily through the mouthpiece or mask.
Complete the Session: Continue inhaling the medication until the mist stops, indicating the session is complete. This typically takes about 5-10 minutes, depending on the volume of medication.

Maintenance and Care

Daily Cleaning: After each use, disassemble the nebulizer cup and clean all parts that come into contact with the medication. Wash these with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and let them air dry on a clean towel. Visit our cleaning solutions products.
Disinfect Regularly: Disinfect the nebulizer parts weekly using a solution of vinegar and water (1 part vinegar to 3 parts water) or as directed by the manufacturer. This helps maintain hygiene and ensures the device operates efficiently.
Check and Replace Filters: Regularly check the air filter and replace it as needed. This will keep your compressor running smoothly and maintain the effectiveness of your treatments.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Reduced Mist Output: If you notice a decrease in mist output, check for any blockages in the tubing or nebulizer cup. Ensure the compressor is working properly and that the air filter is clean.
Noisy Operation: A slight increase in noise can occur over time; however, excessive noise may indicate an issue with the compressor. Check for loose components or contact customer service for assistance.
Leaks in Medication Cup: Ensure all components are correctly assembled and tightly connected. Replace any worn or damaged parts as necessary.

Enhancing Treatment Effectiveness

Proper Inhalation Techniques: Sit upright and breathe calmly during the treatment to maximize the delivery of medication to your lungs.
Regular Equipment Checks: Periodically check your equipment for any signs of wear or damage. Keeping your nebulizer in good condition ensures you receive the most effective treatment.

Portable Use Tips

Travel Preparation: If you plan to travel, pack your MEDNEB system securely in its original packaging or a sturdy bag to protect it. Remember to bring enough medication and all necessary accessories.
Power Supply Considerations: Always ensure you have access to a suitable power source when traveling. If you're going abroad, consider the need for an adapter.
