This unit is a medical instrument.  Be sure to follow the instructions of a doctor and use the unit correctly. 
For the type, dose, and regimen of medication, be sure to follow the instructions of a doctor. 

This unit is not appropriate to use as a household inhalator for humidifying the mucous membranes of throat and nose. 

The nebulization characteristics of this unit differ by the properties of medication.  Especially with the use of a medication
having high surface activity or viscosity such as medication solubilizing agent or expectorant, the nebulization rate may be
reduced.  The nebulization rate may also be reduced when the temperature of medication is low. 

This unit cannot nebulize distilled water. 

The electromagnetic compatibility of this unit conforms to the Medical
Electric Instrument EMC Standard IEC60601-1-2 (1993 version).
