Step 1
Please wash your hands. Fill the clean bottle with the designated volume of warm distilled water or previously boiled water. You may warm the water in a microwave, but we recommend that you warm it in increments of five seconds. This is to avoid excessive heating of the water and damage to 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 & 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 cap snugly against your nasal passage and SQUEEZE BOTTLE GENTLY until the solution starts draining from the OPPOSITE nasal passage or from your mouth. Keep squeezing the bottle GENTLY until at least 1/4 to 1/2 (60 to 120 mL) of the bottle is used for a proper rinse. Do not swallow the solution.

Step 4
Blow your nose gently, without pinching your nose completely because this will apply pressure on the eardrums. If tolerable, sniff in any residual solution remaining in the nasal passage once or twice prior to blowing the nose as this may clean out the posterior nasopharyngeal area (the area at the back of your nasal passage). Some solution will reach the back of the throat, so please spit it out. To help improve drainage of any residual solution, blow your nose gently while tilting your head to the opposite side of the nasal passage that you just rinsed.

Step 5
Now repeat steps 3 & 4 for your other nasal passage.

Step 6
Air dry the Sinus Rinse bottle, cap, and tube on a clean paper towel, a glass plate or use NeilMed’s NasaDock™ (sold separately) to store the bottle cap and tube. If there is any solution leftover, please discard it. We recommend you make a fresh solution each time you rinse. Rinse once or twice a day, OR as directed by your physician.

Warning:   Do not rinse if you have an ear infection, blocked ear or severely blocked nasal passage.  Use lukewarm water. DO NOT USE HOT OR BOILING WATER. Follow the cleaning procedures provided in this information leaflet. You could also consider discussing the use of NasaFlo™ with your doctor. NasaFlo™ bottle and mixture are to be used only for nose washes.  Do not use them for other purposes. Patients on a restricted sodium (common salt)  diet due to heart condition should be careful not to swallow the solution during and after the rinses.
