Nebulizing is a medical process that involves converting liquid medication into a fine mist, allowing it to be inhaled directly into the lungs. This method is commonly used for delivering treatments for respiratory conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and cystic fibrosis. A device called a nebulizer is used for this purpose, making it easier for patients to receive their medication. During nebulization, the patient breathes in the mist through a mouthpiece or mask, ensuring that the medication reaches the airways effectively. This method can be particularly beneficial for young children or individuals who have difficulty using inhalers. Nebulizing treatments are typically administered in a clinical setting or at home, depending on the patient's needs.
