How to Assemble a Nebulizer Mask

Emergency inhalers used to treat asthma and COPD can provide relief for breathing problems. They may be difficult to use, however, for small children and even adults who cannot inhale deeply. Nebulizers deliver the same medications as emergency inhalers in a slower, more controlled method.
