Neilmed Nasamist Saline Spray, 4.2 Fluid Ounce

Q: Why would one pick isotonic as opposed to their other spray, which is either hypotonic or hypertonic (n't recall which)? What does it do differently?

The Isotonic NasaMist is 0.9% salinity to it matches the natural salinity in the body. Th very fine mist that is dispensed provides for short-term symptomatic relief, as well as moisturization. The Hypertonic NasaMist is triple-strength, or 2.7% salinity, so the thinking is that increased percentage of salinity draws the moisture out of the cells in the nasal passages, which acts like an all-natural decongestant.

Q: Is this Nasamist spray different than the Pediamist spray, or are they functionally the same? The only differences I see are the volume and label.

I've used both and didn't notice any difference in how it functioned. I bought the Pediamist when I couldn't locate the other one. Hoping that helps.

Q: Is there iodine in this spray?

No, the contents of the spray are combination of Sodium Chloride and USP-grade water.

Q: How many spays of the saline spray need to be used before a nostril feels moist ?

You should be able to feel moisture with the first spray. The very fine mist will coat the nasal passages as you spray it. The base level of dryness in your nasal passages will dictate how long you will need to spray to reach the saturation point. Please give me a call directly should you have any further questions.
