Does anyone here have any opinions on puffers vs nebs? Our CF dr just put my 6 month old on a puffer and so far I really like it. It seems much faster and efficient than a neb. (I use nebs at work all the time and I hate them). We are using albuterol right now.

They are supposed to work the same. My kids use the spacer (puffer). But when they are congested I use the nebulizer for albuterol. I can never see a difference with the spacer but I can with the nebulizer.

For my own asthma issues, when I'm really struggling the neb works better. But for daily airway clearance with little congestion, the inhaler is fine for our kids. Our doctor said its the same, but some of the adults with CF diagree. I think that the approach of daily - inhaler, but when sick then go to the neb, works best for us.
