The name of the nebulizer with ipratropium and albuterol is Combivent.

Combivent is a quick relief medication that relaxes your muscles around your airways which helps open the airways in the lungs.

Combivent is an aerosol and is given through a nebulizer or metered dose inhaler.

Combivent Respimat is an inhaler that's used to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in adults.

Combivent Respimat contains two active drug ingredients: ipratropium and albuterol. Ipratropium and albuterol are available as a generic drug used to treat COPD.

However, the generic drug is in a different form than Combivent Respimat, which comes as an inhaler.

Both Combivent Respimat Inhalation Spray and DuoNeb Inhalant Solution contain the same medications, i.e., ipratropium and albuterol.

However, Combivent Respimat is an inhaler device that sprays the medicine into your mouth for inhalation into the lungs.

The brand name product DuoNeb has since been discontinued.
