Oxygen Therapy at Home

  • Keep your oxygen tank far away from open fire (like a gas stove) or any other heating source. Avoid smoking or using flammable substance around the tank.
  • DO NOT stop or change your flow of oxygen. Talk with your provider if you think you are not getting the right amount.
  • Dampen your damp nostrils and lips with wet swabs if you feel dry mouth, throat, and nose during oxygen use.
  • If oxygen device is causing discomfort in the face, ear or nose, please inform the medical personnel for adjustment.
