Where do you buy 7% saline for neb?
MAC & Bronchiectasis | Last Active: Nov 28, 2021 | Replies (17)Comment receiving replies
The reason for my question about dosage is that 4ml of 7% sodium, nebbed once or twice a day, has kept my MAC infection from flaring up for almost 3 years, and kept me off antibiotics. Research has shown that 7% concentration is lethal to most mycobacteria.
I was wondering if there is a way to measure how much salt one gets from the pipe, because it might be easier than the neb. How much salt do you "consume" by inhaling in a typical week or month? Maybe I can calculate how it equates to the solution.
Thanks!
Sue

I'm not sure. I'm fairly new to all this. I was only diagnosed this year. My doctor won't prescribe saline for my nebulizer. I tried the salt pipe and find that it works well for me. Maybe, you could find some more research on the web.
