PARI LC® Star Performance Nebulizer
High-Efficiency Aerosol Delivery with Faster Treatment Times
The PARI LC® Star is a high-performance reusable nebulizer designed to deliver medication efficiently, consistently, and comfortably. Engineered for optimal particle size and a high respirable fraction, it ensures that more medication reaches the lower airways where it matters most, while reducing overall treatment time.
When paired with a 1.2 bar compressor, the LC Star produces a fine, well-distributed aerosol that balances fast output with deep lung deposition, making it an excellent choice for patients requiring reliable, daily nebulized therapy.
