Hello There.

After checking with our supplier, they have advised Aerosure Medic Revitive Respiratory Device:

The device does not supply you with oxygen but Aerosure’s patented Vibration Therapy is generated by a high speed spinning valve which rapidly opens and closes, creating a vibration in the air between your lips and your lungs.

As you breathe through the mouthpiece, the vibration targets and strengthens the breathing muscles. Breathe EasierTM with Aerosure.

We would recommend you seek professional advise from your GP if this product would be suitable for your condition.

Thank you for using Q & A.

Hello there. The Aerosure Medic Revitive Respiratory Device has an electrical adapter and does not need batteries.

Thanks for using Q&A.

The information youve written about the product states its suitable for asthmatics, amongst other respiratory conditions such as COPD. So my question to Argos is your answer to this question doesnt specifically match the information advertising the product..

Hi Bluesking,

We do not recommend using the Aerosure Medic Revitive Respiratory Device with asthma before discussing it with your GP or specialist.
