Anyone familiar with pH balanced 7% saline, rather than acidic type?

Someone had posted that the PulmoSal was not available but it is and i have ordered it from my Pharmacy for only $27 for a months worth (60 vials). I also spoke with the manufacturer of it who was very nice and sincere. Pseudomonas likes an acidic environment. So i definitely felt it was worth trying the PulmoSal plus i will be paying way less than the saline i was getting on Amazon.

@irenea8 I find the statement "Pseudomonas likes an acidic environment" very interesting. So I did a little research and found this article https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34867864/ It makes me wonder if the same holds true for NTM/MAC. I can't find any info on that. You have a contact number for the manufacturer of PulmoSal, would you mind calling back for more information regarding the effect of an acidic environment on Mycobacteria? Thanks, Bill
