Good Morning,
Thank you for your post.
If you are new to CPAP therapy and have just ordered your first machine and mask, then I would see how you get on with the machine and mask first.
Once you have got to grips with using the machine and mask, then should you find yourself waking up with a dry mouth, nose or throat, then a humidifier should instantly solve that problem. By adding warmth and moisture to the air provided by your CPAP machine, the humidifier helps keep your mouth moisturised throughout the night. Similarly, if you find the air from your CPAP machine to be cold and uncomfortable, a humidifier should make your therapy more comfortable.
We have some customer who before starting CPAP therapy already suffer from a dry mouth and nasal passage, so buy a humidifier to go with their machine.
If you have any questions, or if we can be of any further assistance, then please do let us know.
Kelly
