Sputum removing devices

[Alice70]

Can anyone tell me is there a difference between a acapella sputum device and a areobika device

[Patk1]

I've not tried the acapello; I use the aerobika + it is available on prescription.its easy to use,very effective and can be used in any position x

Hi I have a acapella device and you blow into it for 6 breaths then clear mucus times 6 every morning it vibrates as you blow with a strength counter to make it easy or stronger blow .been using one for 6yrs every day , after the flutter device was a bit cack handed never tried aerobika tho

I love my AeroBika, but I've never even seen an Acapella, so can't compare them.

Wherevdidvyou get your aerobika please Alberta

[Alberta56 in reply to Alice70]

My doctor prescribed my AeroBika, probably because the respiratory nurse who was helping me through a bad exacerbation asked him to. You can buy one on the internet but you are entitled to one on the NHS.
