UV light is often unable to penetrate all areas of the CPAP hoses, masks, and connectors, and disinfection will fail.  The use of UV light products can also lead to accidental exposure to the light if improper shielding is used.  Such exposure can produce eye injuries and skin burns.

Cleaners that employ ozone for disinfection often leak releasing the gas at unsafe levels into the air.  Also, the gas levels may remain at unsafe levels in the CPAP machine, hoses, and masks even after the recommended waiting periods following the cleaning cycle.

The FDA recommends that you refer to your CPAP machine manuals for recommended cleaning instructions.

The first lower cost generic albuterol inhaler is now available for use by children and adults ages 4 years and over.  This type of metered inhaler has been difficult for generic manufacturers to duplicate.  Now that a safe and effective alternative to the branded Pro-Air inhaler is available, the price competition may take place.
