Check with theguide below or consult with your physician for best use.An Isotonic solution creates a mild, less concentrated salt solution of 9 mgof Sodium Chloride per mL of water, which has a similar salt concentrationof your body and may be more comfortable to use for some people initiallythan a more concentrated Hypertonic solution.A Hypertonic solution creates a higher, more concentrated salt solutionwhich is similar to the salt content of ocean water.1. Wash your hands and make sure the bottle has been rinsed with waterthat has been either distilled, sterilized, filtered or previously boiled.2. Pour the pre-mixed saline dry ingredients into the Squeeze Bottle.First-time users should start with 1 packet of the saline dry ingredientsto make an isotonic solution. As you become more accustomed tothe system, work up to using 2 full packets for a hypertonic solution.Additional packets may be purchased from your nearest pharmacy.3. Fill the bottle to the 8 oz line with proper water*.4. Tighten the cap on the bottle securely, place one finger over the tipof the cap and gently shake the bottle until the dry ingredients havecompletely dissolved.5.

Aim the tip at the backof your head, not at the top of your head. (continued on back)Hints for a more comfortable nasal wash:• Begin using the Sinus Wash System slowly – especially with children. A fullpot or bottle of solution on each side is not necessary to receive the full benefit.• If the solution is too warm or too cold, the nasal wash will be uncomfortable.• If stinging or irritation occurs, try using 1 packet of dry ingredients perpot or bottle. Gradually work up to using the solution at full strength using 2full packets per bottle. Do not use less than 1 packet.• If you experience ear discomfort after use, try to blow your nose more gentlyafter the wash. If the problem persists, the openings of your Eustachian tubesmay be particularly wide and use of the system should be discontinued.• Breathe continuously through the mouth when using the Sinus Wash Systemto avoid solution draining from the back of the nose into the mouth.• Some people experience irritation of the skin just inside the nostrils withrepeated nasal washing. Applying a thin layer of aloe to the inside of thenostrils before or after the nasal wash will be soothing
