System Choices. Step 4.

Select the medication cup

Select the medication cup you need.

Medication cups are rated as slow, standard and fast based on the size of aerosol droplets produced. This means that they suit medication of different viscosity ranges.

The standard medication cup is suitable for most medications.

So far you have selected

Mask size ......... Large

System ............. MDI

Mask Colour ..... Pink

Slow

The slow medication cup is almost exclusively for use with Nebulin.

Standard

The standard cup will nebulise most medications.
If used with high viscosity oily type drugs it can lead to slow delivery time and/or failure to nebulise.

Fast

If used with low viscosity (watery) drugs the Fast medication cup can produce large aerosol droplets leading to pools of medication wasted in the bottom of the mask chamber.
