A nebulizer treatment can help to relieve asthma symptoms if a reliever medicine, such as Albuterol or Xopenex, is used.
In addition to using a nebulizer, a school aged child could also be taught to use an inhaler with a spacer to get his asthma treatment.
Dry powdered inhalers are also becoming popular for school aged children, so that they can avoid using a spacer or nebulizer all together.
