Hi -- I know a bunch of you have kids who are using nebulizers. Do you have an online source for getting nebulizer kits and masks? My friend says she replaces hers once a month - I had no idea!! She goes to a retail store; I was hoping to order a set of 10 or 12 and be done with it for the year.

Any recommendations would be appreciated - thanks.

I was set up through the NICU and then through M's ped Pulm. Everything is covered through my insurance. Have you tried talking to either the Ped or your insurance?

Oh I hadn't thought of that - thanks. I was planning to order and then FSA-it. Thanks, I will email the doctor.

Still looking for suggestions, if anyone has any.

We get ours via prescription at the pharmacy. I'm not sure why they need to be replaced monthly? Although we only use ours occasionally.

Thanks - I have emailed the doctor. She wants to make sure hers are super clean (despite hand washing). Her daughter takes treatments twice a day; mine takes them once a day...and I've never replaced them!
