about
A gas + particle mixture is defined as an aerosol; mist is an example
inhalation
of a natural aerosol. Aerosol therapy delivers medicines in an "air
therapy
transported" form (e.g. nebulized) which are inhaled. The great
advantage of this therapy (unlike taking tablets for example) is that
the medicines are administered at the precise point where they will
have greatest effect (via the oro-nasalpharyngeal cavity into the
lung) without passing through other organs:
1. The effect is noticeably rapid.
2. There is no (significant) effect or side effect on other organs.
3. Small quantities of medicines are used.
