The present invention relates to a device for providing an aerosol flow and/or an air flow with at least a compressor for providing an air flow, a nebulization device for generating an aerosol flow and a mixing means for optionally mixing the aerosol flow with the air flow to a total flow, wherein the total flow is composed of the aerosol flow and/or the air flow. Further, the device comprises at least a first air channel between the compressor and the nebulization device, at least a second air channel between the compressor and the mixing means and an amplification means for increasing the air flow provided by the compressor. According to a further aspect of the present invention, the device comprises, in addition to or instead of the amplification means, a bypass channel connecting the first and the second air channel and being suitable for redirecting the air flow in the first air channel into the mixing means by bypassing the nebulization means.
