Nicole,



The drug you refer to is called Aztreanam Lysine. Yes, it is for use with the e-flow. I am participating in the study and it is fabulous, so is the e-flow. When AL comes out, it will be prescribed with the e-flow. I am glad to hear another clinics opinion. Thanks!

So, can you take the Aztreanam Lysine using other compressors too?? Some insurance companies will only cover one compressor every few years<img src=""></end quote></div>

No, Aztreanam is being tested and used with the e-flow only. I have been told that they will set it up so that your first delivery of AL will come with an e-flow. E-flow is not your average nebulizer and I would think that your insurance will have to cover it because the med can not be taken without the e-flow. I am not sure though how that will work with insurance. I would now worry about it until the time comes<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
