 Not All Created EqualFeb 25, 2009
By Karl Bielefeldt
I second the praise others have left for nasal rinsing in general. I suffer from severe allergies, and this has helped orders of magnitude more than anything else. If your nose is so clogged that your antihistamine spray can't work properly, this is the product for you.
It also helps tremendously in the allergen avoidance department. I love being outdoors, but am highly allergic, so I do an extra rinse after a hike and it hardly has time to affect me, when I used to have a huge post-hike crash.
I want to add a word about NeilMed packets specifically. I bought a box of store brand refills thinking it couldn't be any different. I was completely wrong. The store brand was uncomfortable in my nose, and left a bad taste in my mouth that ruined the flavor of food all day for me. I threw out the rest of the box and bought NeilMed refills. They are very comfortable in my nose, and leave only a slight tear-like salty taste in my mouth, if any, which quickly dissipates and doesn't ruin the taste of food at all.

Quality of life increaseDec 02, 2010
By Phil
I've been using this product for 6 years. I use it daily. It cleans my sinus passages. It never ceased to amaze me what I flush out when the air is bad. I use it with distilled water. I have a VERY sensitive nose, tap or even bottled drinking water left me with some scent.
Years ago I used to buy it direct from the NeilMed (a good company), but now it is available at most chain pharmacies and of course Amazon, which is where I get it from now as a subscriber, that's the best method for me.
I know the product is "just" sodium chloride (salt) and sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), and I could obtain those and mix them myself. I'm a frugal guy and thought about it, but the convenience and ease of the packet is just too great. Especially when I do my rinse first thing in the morning and half asleep. Once I forgot to put the packet in.....OUCH.
I don't know if you can be "addicted" to this, but I look at it this way. You shower daily, brush your teeth daily, etc. I rinse my sinuses daily. Are those other hygiene practices addictions as well?
This product and sinus rinsing in general has been of great benefit to me.
If you have sinus problems or allergies, I could not give a higher recommendation than to try a product like this.

Reduces snoringApr 30, 2009
By Lynn Pride
"Wife_Mom_Me"
I had read about and researched the Netipot and all the claims about using it. So I purchased a netipot and a NeilMed Sinus Rinse Bottle. The NeilMed bottle is much easier and less mess. I had used it for about 3 days when my husband desided he wanted to try one (I had bought one for each of us...no sharing). He did not like the sensation and said that he was not going to use it again. Well, that night he did not snore. Best sleep I have had in years. The next night he DID use it again (with slight urging from me). I can always tell when he has not used it in a couple days because I cannot hear the TV over his racket. BEST product I have bought in a very long time. The NeilMed pre-mix packets are great for either the netipot or NeilMed bottle. No burning. And there is no residual smell like there is after using the packets that came with the Netipot. I have since bought a set for my mom and sister. 9 more are on order for me to have on hand.

The first thing that has really worked for post nasal drip.Dec 24, 2009
By Edward S. Episcopo
I have been trying everything I could think of to relieve my chronic sinus problems. Over the years, I've been able to get to the point where I don't get the full blown sinus infection and fever, but I am usually miserable from Dec. - Feb. and I have the lower grade of sinus problems the rest of the year. This year the post nasal drip became so bad that I was unable to sleep again. The next stage is that it goes into my chest and it's always down hill from there. A friend at work recommended the Neilmed nasal rinse. I bought it and started using it twice a day for the last 25 days. I noticed improvement immediately and after three days, my sinues felt better than they had in years. I have had no post nasal drip for the last 25 days of December. This has allowed me to get more sleep and has improved my general health overall. I haven't tried this with a sinus infection or with a cold, so I don't know how it will work under those conditions, but I can say for sure, in my case, it has eliminated the post nasal drip problem, which always leads to more serious complications for me. It takes a few minutes to prepare the solution and to clean the bottle twice a day, but it has been a small price to pay for the relief it has provided. I highly recommend giving it a try!

 Fast but affects my earsApr 19, 2010
By Tan Tien
I agree with others that this system is a fast and effective system; far faster than using a Neti pot, which I continue to be a fan.
I have one problem with this system that I stopped me from using it more frequently; there was too much pressure to my Eustachian tubes. This nasal rinse requires some amount of pressure to squeeze the solution upwards into your sinuses. This pressure, for me, even the lightest I could manage, too often caused my ears to get a full "swimmers ear" feeling. While my sinuses felt better quickly, the hollow ear feeling was an uncomfortable side effect.
The Neti pot never has affected my ears in this same way, so I continue to use it instead of the squeeze bottles, but still use the Neti pot with the saline packets included with this kit.
