Hi Poodledoc
I have the same nebulizing routine. Do you know if there are any long term side effects of inhaling the hypertonic saline?

jc @jcwest211 I have done tons of research on this and have never come across any bad long term side effects. Short term side effects could include direct irritation to your airways, causing more coughing or just that feeling of irritation in which case you should lower the % saline from say 7% to 3% at least temporarily.
