What is the safest way to administer a medication that
creates airborne particles during the COVID-19 pandemic?
The preferred treatment is a pressurized metered-dose inhaler with a
spacer. Each patient should have an individual spacer, and this should
not be shared at home. The use of nebulizers should be avoided when
possible because they increase the risk of disseminating viral
particles, which could affect other patients and healthcare
personnel.133
