DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
USE ONLY AS DIRECTED, IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST SEE YOUR DOCTOR/HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL. ALWAYS READ THE LABEL.
Step 1 Please wash your hands. Fill the clean bottle with the designated volume of either distilled, micro-filtered (through 0.2 micron filter), commercially bottled or previously boiled and cooled down water. 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. *You may warm the water in a microwave in increments of 5 to 10 seconds to avoid overheating the water, damaging the device or scalding your nasal passage.
Step 2 Cut the Sinus Rinse mixture packet at the corner and pour its contents into the bottle. Tighten the cap and tube on the bottle securely. Place one finger over the tip of the cap and shake the bottle gently to dissolve the mixture.
Step 3 Standing in front of a sink, bend forward to your comfort level and tilt your head down. Keeping your mouth open, without holding your breath, place the cap snugly against your nasal passage. SQUEEZE BOTTLE GENTLY until the solution starts draining from the OPPOSITE nasal passage. Some may drain from your mouth. For a proper rinse, keep squeezing the bottle GENTLY until at least 1/4 to 1/2 (60 mL to 120 mL or 2 to 4 fl oz) of the bottle is used. Do not swallow the solution.
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. To help drain any residual solution, blow your nose gently while tilting your head forward and to the opposite side of the nasal passage you just rinsed.
Step 5 Now repeat steps 3 and 4 for your other nasal passage. Most users find that rinsing twice a day is beneficial, similar to brushing your teeth. Many doctors recommend rinsing 3-4 times daily or for special circumstances, even rinsing up to 6 times a day is safe. Please follow your physician’s advice.
Step 6 Clean the bottle and cap. Air dry the Sinus Rinse bottle, cap, and tube on a clean paper towel, a lint free towel, or use NeilMed NasaDOCK or NasaDOCK plus (sold separately) to store the bottle, cap and tube.
It is very important to keep these devices clean and free from any contamination.Replace the bottle every 3 months.
- Dishwasher Cleaning: Do not use a dishwasher to clean the inside of a bottle. While our bottle is dishwasher safe, a dishwasher will not adequately clean the SINUS RINSE bottle. The water jets in dishwashers cannot enter the narrow neck of the bottle, and portions of the bottle's interior will not be cleaned thoroughly. Additional methods of cleaning the bottle include the use of concentrated white vinegar or isopropyl alcohol (70% concentration), followed by scrubbing and rinsing as described above.
- Microwave Disinfection: Clean the device with soap and water as mentioned above and shake off the excess water. Now place the bottle, cap and tube in the microwave for 40 seconds. This will disinfect the bottle, cap and tube. If the microwave has been used recently, please make sure that the inside of the microwave has cooled back down to room temperature before using it to disinfect the bottle.

Read and retain this enclosed brochure, if provided, for instructions and other 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.

Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2023
Since arriving in Maine in 2009, it has been a downward spiral of ever increasing sinus issues including months and months on antibiotics and prednisone without relief. My doctors recommended saline washes but did not recommend a particular product. I started out with Arm & Hammer saline sprays. These cans of compressed gas driven strays are quite expensive. The Arm & Hammer product helped but I never thought I was getting a good flush out and the infections lingered.
I accidentally stumbled onto the NeilMed video at [...] that demonstrates this product. Wow, is all I could say. It answered my question that the Arm & Hammer saline spray was NOT getting the job done and showed what it was like to do the job correctly. I went to my local RiteAid and got a bottle, a drying rack, and premixed packets. The system is so much easier to use and does a much better job. After only a few days of daily use, the sinus infection I had come to accept as my "new normal" was gone. First time in I don't know how long I haven't smelled a dead mouse in my head every time I leaned over. First time since I can't remember when the claws of the dead ones cousin have where not trying to claw out an exit.
I also purchased the isotonic premixed packets which arrived after I got rid of my friends. I am going to try these in the event my friends return and when my allergies explode again. In the meantime, I will be using the regular premixed packets.
I am an Extreme Couponer who DOES NOT pay full price for anything. I keep a detailed log, on average paying 12% per month I spent a fair amount of time looking for the best deal to build my inventory of this product. This is by far the best deal I found for premixed packets with the 2 bottles being a bonus. I have one bottle I purchased from my local RiteAid I use daily. I keep one of these with several isotonic and regular premixed packets in the tote of the day. The last I am hanging onto as a spare. I will continue to order this kit and pass on the spare bottles with a few premixed packets to friends and family to fall in love with this great product as I have.

Some tips:
- To help relieve congestion, mix up a "hypertonic" solution--double up the packets you use. It may burn a bit but it draws moisture out of the tissues and helps to shrink them a bit, making you breathe easier, almost like a really mild version of afrin, (without the worry of rebound congestion).
- When using the product, I prefer to exhale through my mouth while pushing the water through, it seems inevitably (and especially when you're congested/have a cold, etc) some will come out your throat, this just keeps everything going in the right direction.
- Afterwords, it's helpful to gently blow into a wad of tissues, while tipping your head this way and that (I've even found if you bend perpendicular at the wast, and then turn your head all the way to the right and left while blowing) it helps clear out all the various sinus cavities that may be retaining a little water. This is important to do now instead of when you're leaning over a coworker's desk helping them fix a computer, lean down, and are horrified to see water dribble out your nose onto their desk. (Thankfully said coworker was looking the other way and I was wearing a long-sleeved sweatshirt, I arm-wiped it quick-like and they were never the wiser.) But that could have been baad!
All in all, a simple, natural way to deal with allergies, congestion, colds, etc, etc. Since viruses enter through the mucus membranes (among other ways, I'm sure, but I'm no scientist) it makes sense that frequent rinsing would help prevent things like colds, since they're being washed away before they get a chance to embed and multiply! This 250ct box in particular is a great value, $21 and came with 250 packets, and two bottles. Wal-mart, on the other hand is like $13 and comes with 25 or 30 packets and one bottle. Not such a good deal, but in a pinch, when you need it "now" --still totally worth it.
So do yourself a favor, and do as another reviewer here stated: Douche your nose! You won't be sorry.
