"The nose is the guardian of the respiratory tract, and clean, moist nasal passages function better. The regular use of hypertonic nasal sprays such as Nasal Comfort can be a valuable part of a daily regimen. In addition to its cleansing benefits, Nasal Comfort spray encourages regular use because it is portable and easy to use."
--Laurence J. Marsteller, M.D., Board Certified Physician

Buffered hypertonic saline nasal irrigation is an important addition to the care of sinus disease, both chronic and postsurgical. Buffered hypertonic saline irrigation should be used in chronic and postoperative sinus patients. Those with other causes of rhinitis, including acute sinusitis, may also benefit from regular nasal irrigation with this solution.
