Car air Conditioning

- Hello,
Is air conditioning in cars harmful for CF patients ?
Are there precautions to take or is it better not to use it?
Thank you for your advice. - Answer
- Hello
Here's what Dr. Posselt has written about car air conditioning in 2008:
"The air conditioning devices are not problematic for patients with CF as long as the filter devices are maintained according to instructions, that is modified according to instructions. This is easy to control on his own car ". For rental cars, it seems preferable to seek a new vehicle or to check the dates of filter changes.
On these boards, you can use the car air conditioning without fear. By heat, remember, the need for increased vigilance with respect to measures to prevent dehydration.
