Dr. Zhang Weiling
If a child exhibits symptoms such as coughing or asthma, nebulization therapy may be administered. However, for common colds, fever, or simple coughs, nebulization therapy is generally not recommended; instead, medications specifically indicated for colds and coughs should be used to effectively relieve symptoms. Nebulized inhalation involves using specialized nebulizing equipment to convert medication into fine particles, which are then inhaled into the airways and lungs to achieve therapeutic effects.
