The Best Albuterol Nebulizer for Traveling

If you have a medical condition that impairs your breathing, you are not alone. Emphysema, COPD, and asthma are among the most common health ailments for people at any age. These breathing problems, among others, frequently require the use of a nebulizer. While standard nebulizers are great for home use, they can be difficult to travel with. If you want something that is a bit more convenient to travel with, you may want to consider the Aura Portaneb.

Why The Portaneb?

When doing research on portable nebulizers, we read many online reviews. These reviews consistently noted that this portable nebulizer is easily one of the best selling nebulizers out there. We also looked at portability, and that is where this nebulizer truly shined. It can easily be packed away on checked luggage, a carry-on bag, your car, or anywhere else you might want to put it. In fact, this nebulizer even fits in your pocket. Portability isn’t the only important thing when it comes to travel sized medical equipment; we also wanted to make sure that this nebulizer was durable. With a smaller number of moving parts, this nebulizer will last a very long time. It is also versatile: you can use it with many different medications at any given time.

Features

The Aura Portaneb features a unique medicine cup. The cup is unique because it is large, detaches from the main unit, and loads on top for easy accessibility. You can easily load medicines in, and cleaning the medicine cup is extremely easy. The medicine cup also features unit demarcations that are easily visible from the front. It uses two AA batteries for power, and has easy to use buttons for operation. Ease of use is extremely important with equipment like this, as many patients may be lacking dexterity or strength, and the Portaneb exceeds all expectations in this area. The Portaneb also operates silently and discreetly, making it an excellent choice for the traveler who wishes not to disturb their fellow travelers. The silent operation doesn’t mean it doesn’t work; this machine is as quick and as thorough in nebulizing medications as any full sized unit. One truly unique feature of this machine is that it automatically shuts off once all of the medicine has been delivered to the patient. Most full-sized nebulizers don’t even have this feature.

Package Contents

When you order an Aura Portaneb, the only thing you need to purchase separately is your medication. With the purchase of a Portaneb, you receive the nebulizer unit, a carrying case, a mouth piece, and even a few masks in case you prefer to use the over the face application. It even includes the required AA batteries and a power adapter in case your batteries run out.
ConclusionIf you need a versatile travel inhaler, the Aura Portaneb is easily one of the best options on the market. It can be used with any number of medications and is durable and long lasting. It works so well that many patients use it instead of their daily nebulizers. Its ability to work just as well as a full sized nebulizer allows it to truly stand out in the medical market.
