WARNINGS FOR MEDICATION USE

Always follow the prescribing physician's instructions regarding the type of medication to be used, the dosage,
the frequency, and duration of the inhalations. The 6700 has been designed for use with aqueous solutions
of medication; medication that is too dense or oily will not be nebulized correctly. If a medication has not
been nebulized correctly, dilute it with an equal quantity of physiological solution for inhalations (add 2 ml of
physiological solution to 2 ml of oily medication).
