    Hi,
    I need to get a nebuliser. My GP has given me a script for the what goes into the nebuliser. I went to pharmacist and was told it was 200 euro. Saw some on amazon for 40. But just wanted to get advice from anyone of where you bought yours and which one you bought?

    Note: you do not need a script for the nebuliser just for the ventolin or whatever you are putting into them,

    This is a question mor about practicle cost. Thanks

    200 is a bit steep. There are several different nebulisers available at much more competitive prices. Make sure that spare parts are readily available.

    200 euro is a bit steep for a nebuliser all right- is that the nebuliser by itself or the nebuliser plus the medicated nebules? I work in a pharmacy and we can get nebuliser from one the brand leaders omron which retails at around €90 + would be under warranty. It all depends what kind of nebuliser you- a basic one to use at home or a portable one if you travel a lot?

    Most pharmacies should have a basic omron one for about €90 (omron c28) so you should be able to pick that up tomorrow. If no pharmacy in your area has it, one of them should be able order it for you and have it on Tuesday!
