Hello
Is home oxygen therapy recommended by your doctor?
If not, please share your health issue and previous consultations here.
Nebulizer and inhaler are drug delivery systems, not used for oxygen supplementation.
Bipap is a non invasive ventilator
You can use oxygen concentrator at home for oxygen supplementation.
As I said earlier, better to consult a Pulmonologist or your doctor before using any device.
