Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between a mesh nebuliser and a jet nebuliser?

A: A jet nebuliser uses compressed air to create a mist, which produces more noise and takes longer to deliver medication. A mesh nebuliser (like the Omron NE-U100) uses a vibrating mesh to create fine droplets — it is quieter, faster and more efficient with less medication left in the chamber after use. Mesh nebulisers are generally preferred for portability and convenience.

Q: Can I use any medication in the Omron NE-U100 mesh nebuliser?

A: The Omron NE-U100 is compatible with most standard respiratory medications including salbutamol, ipratropium and budesonide solutions. Always check with your doctor or pharmacist that your specific medication is suitable for use in a mesh nebuliser, as some formulations (such as oily solutions) are not compatible with mesh devices.

Q: How do I clean the Omron NE-U100 mesh nebuliser?

A: The medication cup and mouthpiece should be rinsed with clean water after each use and allowed to dry. The mesh component should be cleaned regularly as per the user manual to prevent blockage. Do not use harsh detergents or scrub the mesh directly. Full cleaning instructions are provided in the device manual.

Q: Is the Omron NE-U100 suitable for children?

A: Yes — the near-silent operation of the NE-U100 makes it particularly suitable for children who may be frightened by the noise of traditional jet nebulisers. A child mask attachment is available for younger children. Always use the correct medication dose prescribed for your child and consult your doctor or pharmacist for advice on nebuliser use in children.
