NasalCare Dosage/Direction for Use

1. Open one Nasal Rinse Mix packet and pour all of the contents into the bottle.
Fill the bottle with lukewarm boiled water (use distilled or bottled water if the patient recently had nasal surgery) to the top line of the nasal irrigator. Screw the cap onto the bottle. Shake the bottle to dissolve the mix.
2. Bend over a sink and tilt the head down. Open the mouth and place the nostril fitting snugly into one nostril. Breathe through the mouth, not the nose, while washing. Squeeze the bottle just enough to allow the solution to flow into the nose. Squeeze and release repeatedly. Doing so makes the washing process more efficient. Do not squeeze the bottle all the way in one motion. The dirty solution flows out from the other nostril. During irrigation, don't swallow, talk or laugh to prevent choking.
3. Before irrigating the other side of the nose, the patient can gently blow his/her nose to let the dirt flow out.
4. Insert the nostril fitting to the other side of nostril, repeat step 2 and 3. If there is still dirty material that flows out, repeat the previously mentioned steps till the nasal cavity becomes clean or all liquid is used out.
5. To get rid of the residual water, bend over and point the nose towards the knees, and then gently breathe in from the mouth and breath out from the nose for several times. A few droplets of water may run down. Repeat for 5-10 times. If there is little solution left in the nasal cavity, it is harmless and no need to worry about it. The leftover solution helps to moisture the nasal cavity.
6. Nasal rinse can be done at any time. For users with nasal problems, it is recommended doing nasal rinse twice a day or as recommended by the physician. For users without nasal problems, rinsing the nose twice a week can provide general nasal hygiene. It is better not to cleanse the nose 1 hour before going to bed. For those patients who suffer serious rhinitis and sinusitis, they may consider an increase in the solution concentration by reducing the water to 160-200 ml after using the product for 1-2 weeks.
Maintenance: After each nasal wash, rinse the bottle and cap completely and leave them air dry. The bottle can be repeatedly used till its elasticity is gone.
