People can use oxygen therapy from lower dose, or non-medical grade oxygen concentrators, if they want to improve their health with extra oxygen. Those who need medical grade oxygen because of a medical issue that has been diagnosed by a pulmonary specialist, will of course, need to use a higher dose of oxygen. Medical grade oxygen must always be treated like any other kind of prescribed medication.
If you’re having an increased difficulty breathing for longer than a month at a time, you might want to see your doctor to see what’s going on. You might have a medical condition that needs to be treated with medications, including oxygen therapy.
You will need to be properly tested and diagnosed by a pulmonary specialist, to get a prescription for oxygen therapy. When you have a prescription, you can then purchase a medical grade oxygen concentrator, like the ones we sell here at American Medical.
