Inhalers available in pharmacies (membrane and compressor) can be used in patients of all ages. Masks for children and adults are available in the sets.
Membrane inhalers are smaller and virtually silent (which can be important for very young children), but require regular membrane replacement. The disadvantage is also the higher price and restrictions on use (inhalations should not be performed from solutions containing hyaluronic acid), but they are well suited for continuous operation (long, frequent inhalations).
Piston inhalers are more popular, cheaper, and often quite noisy. There are variants dedicated to children (e.g. in the form of a toy - Microlife "teddy bear" - link below). In pharmacies, you can usually also buy spare kits (e.g. from Microlife) containing a set of accessories, which is convenient if you lose parts or need to have larger quantities of masks.
Examples of inhalers:
On our website, you can check the availability of inhalers and place an order with pick-up at the pharmacy or home delivery (also via Wolt).
