A method and apparatus for administering medicinal aerosol to a patient's lungs through an endotracheal tube (22) connected to a ventilator (100) or other respiratory apparatus, in which a charging volume (26) connected to a nebulizer (102) for generating medicinal aerosol is inserted between the ventilator (100) and the endotracheal tube (22), such that the charging volume (26) is filled with medicinal aerosol during patient exhalation, and the medicinal aerosol in the charging volume (26) is delivered into the endotracheal tube during patient inhalation. Additional amounts of medicinal aerosol are delivered into the endotracheal tube (22) during patient inhalation through hose (24) between the charging volume (26) and the nebulizer (102).
