Don’t use it if you think you might be sick enough to throw up. My grandfather did that and breathed in the vomit trapped by the mask. He died of aspiration pneumonia within a week.

Not all CPAP setups use masks. I switched to nasal pillows years ago. There is nothing over my mouth. Much more comfortable for me than a mask.
