Does saliva contaminate the nebulizer?

  
What do you guys think? Is it wise to inform the patient not to tap the nebulizer reservoir after it sputters? Can it put the patient at risk for possible reinfection especially for patients with chronic lung disease? Please include reference to support answer. Than you for everyone's input.

When the nebulizer sputters' - the treatment is over.
