Please read Warning before using. Our recommendation is to replace Neti Pot every three months. USE ONLY AS DIRECTED, IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST SEE YOUR DOCTOR/HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL. ALWAYS READ THE LABEL. IMPORTANT: NeilMed®
SINUS RINSE™ Mixture Packets should be used with NeilMed® 240 mL (8 fl
oz) NASAFLO® to achieve the best results. You may use NeilMed® packets
with other irrigation devices, as long as you mix with the correct
volume of water. Our recommendation is to replace Neti Pot every three
months.
Step 1
Please wash your hands and rinse the device. Fill the NASAFLO® with 240
mL (8 fl oz) of lukewarm distilled, filtered or previously boiled
water. Please do not use tap or faucet water to dissolve the mixture
unless it has been previously boiled and cooled down. You may warm the
water in a microwave, but we recommend that you warm it in increments of
5 to 10 seconds to avoid overheating, damaging the device or scalding
your nasal passage.
Step 2
Cut the SINUS RINSE™ mixture packet at the corner and pour contents
into the pot. Tighten the lid on the device securely. Place one finger
over the hole of the cap and shake the device gently to dissolve the
mixture.
Step 3
Standing in front of a sink, bend forward to your comfort level and
tilt your head to one side. Keeping your mouth open, and without holding
your breath, apply the tip of the device snugly against your nasal
passage and ALLOW THE SOLUTION TO GENTLY FLOW until the solution starts
draining from the opposite nasal passage. Use roughly half the solution
in the NASAFLO® (120 mL / 4 fl oz). It should not enter your mouth
unless you are tilting your head backwards. To adjust or stop the flow,
you may place your finger over the hole of the cap, and depending on the
seal, you may be able to control the flow.
Step 4 Blow
your nose very gently, without pinching nose completely to avoid
pressure on eardrums. If tolerable, sniff in gently any residual
solution remaining in the nasal passage once or twice, because this may
clean out the posterior nasopharyngeal area, which is the area at the
back of your nasal passage. At times, some solution will reach the back
of your throat, so please spit it out. For NASAFLO® users, to help
drain any residual solution, blow your nose gently while tilting your
head forward and to the same side of the nasal passage you just rinsed.
Step 5 Now repeat steps 3 & 4 on your other nasal passage.
If there is any solution left over, please discard it. We recommend you
make a fresh solution each time you rinse. Rinse once or twice daily OR
as directed by your physician.
Saline is considered safe.
The U.S. FDA is recommending that common cough and cold over the
counter medicines not be given to babies and toddlers, and that
antihistamines should not be given to children under age 6. NeilMed®
NASAFLO®: Please clean with soap & water and let air dry.
WARNINGSPlease read Warnings before using. Our recommendation is to replace the Neti Pot every three months.
Always rinse your nasal passages with NeilMed® SINUS RINSE™
packets only. Our packets contain a mixture of USP grade sodium
chloride and sodium bicarbonate. These ingredients are of the purest
quality available to make the dry powder mixture. Rinsing your nasal
passages with only plain water without our mixture will result in a
severe burning sensation as the plain water is not physiologic for your
nasal lining, even if it is appropriate for drinking. Additionally, for
your safety, do not use tap or faucet water for dissolving the mixture
unless it has been previously boiled for five minutes or more as boiling
sterilizes the water. Other choices are distilled, micro-filtered
(through 0.2 micron), commercially bottled or, as mentioned earlier,
previously boiled water at lukewarm or body temperature. You can store
boiled water in a clean container for seven days or more if
refrigerated. Do not use non-chlorinated or non-ultra (0.2 micron)
filtered well water unless it is boiled and then cooled to lukewarm or
body temperature. Do not rinse if your nasal passages are completely
blocked or if you have an ear infection or blocked ears. If you have had
recent ear or sinus surgery, contact your physician prior to
irrigation. If you experience any pressure in the ears or burning in the
nasal passages, stop irrigation and get further directions from your
physician. Keep out of reach of children. Read and retain this enclosed
brochure for instructions and other important information.
Always
Use Distilled or Micro-Filtered (through 0.2 micron) or Commercially
Bottled or Previously Boiled & Cooled Down Water at Lukewarm or Body
Temperature. Please do not use tap or faucet water when using NeilMed's
nasal wash devices unless it has been previously boiled and cooled
down.

mixed with NeilMed® SINUS RINSE™ packets. Do not
use tap or faucet water for dissolving the mixture unless it has been

important information.
We recommend that you use the rinse ONE HOUR PRIOR to bedtime in order to avoid any residual solution dripping down the throat.
We
strongly advise against the use of our kit on children or adults who
have physical limitations or mental disabilities due to developmental or
acquired disorders. Adults should read the directions first before
using it on their children. Keep out of reach of children. Do not
swallow the solution; however, if you do so accidentally, there is no
harm as the amount of sodium ingested in one swallow is insignificant.
Patients
who are unable to stand up or bend near the sink SHOULD NOT use this
product. We advise you NOT to use this kit on patients who are bed bound
or severely debilitated.
Tips To Avoid Ear Discomfort While Rinsing
If you have had ear surgery, please contact your physician prior to irrigation.
Do not use if you have an ear infection or blocked ears.
Rinse with lukewarm distilled, filtered or previously boiled water.
Keep your mouth open.
Do not hold your breath while rinsing.
While rinsing, make sure to tilt your head as shown in the photo below.
Gently squeeze the bottle while rinsing; do not squeeze the bottle very forcefully.
Stop the rinse if you feel a sensation of fluid near your ears.
Most importantly, always blow your nose very gently.
To Avoid Unexpected Drainage After Rinsing:
In rare situations, especially if you have had sinus surgery, the
saline solution can pool in the sinus cavities and nasal passages and
then drip from your nostrils hours after rinsing. To avoid this harmless
but annoying inconvenience, take one extra step after rinsing: lean
forward, tilt your head sideways and gently blow your nose. Then, tilt
your head to the other side and blow again. You may need to repeat this
several times. This will help rid your nasal passages of any excess
mucus and remaining saline solution. If you find yourself experiencing
delayed drainage often, do not rinse right before leaving your house or
going to bed.
Caution against using homemade salt mixtures with NeilMed® medical devices:
Homemade solutions may have incorrect concentrations, leading to
inadequate relief or even nasal congestion. Additionally, storebought
table salt and baking soda are not pharmaceutical grade compounds for
medical use and may contain impurities. The NeilMed® SINUS RINSE™
system is a large volume nasal rinse that will deliver 120mL to 240mL(8
fl oz) of saline solution into the nasal passages. Adding one blue
packet of NeilMed SINUS RINSE™ to 240mL(8 fl oz) of water
will make an Isotonic saline solution (Hypertonic with 2 or more
packets) that is pH balanced and preservative free.
USE ONLY AS DIRECTED, IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST SEE YOUR DOCTOR/HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL. ALWAYS READ THE LABEL.
