How does bronchiectasis progress?

I am having a hard time finding 3% NS for my Nebulizer. Is anyone else having the same problem. Have you ever made your own Nebulizer Saline? My Dr gave me a recipe for it. But I am afraid I will goof up and it want be sterile.

It is extremely difficult to find in my area. I called a huge number of Walgreens and found some way north of me. Luckily they fedexed it to me. I had been buying from a supplier but he did not answer my last email. It was costly. Walgreens takes goodrx and was lots cheaper. I would advise looking up walgreens on google maps and trying same state but further away in both directions.

I bought some from Amazon and I had to pay for it myself, of course. Quite pricey but I had built up some money in my account from my credit card so made so it wasn't too bad. I checked my Walgreens and they didn't have any but they don't except my insurance anyway.

My pharmacy is also having a difficult time locating 3% vials but did locate and stock vials containing 15L with instructions to pour only 4ml into nebulizer. I use one vial 2x a day. I have however wondered if reuse of the vial is sterile. Not sure about making your own but again the importance of a sterile solution shouldn’t be discarded. I wish you luck in locating 3% for the benefits of its use is most helpful.

Thanks for the Amazon tip. I have Amazon prime and just bought 1 month of sod chloride 3% for $10.10 with free shipping (I had a script there from before but at the time they couldn't get any). We'll see if it ships but that is a better price by $1 plus dollars than Walgreens at 11.70! What a game.

Can you send the link to Amazon. I looked up the 3% saline and could not find any for $10.10. I, too, have Prime. Thanks so very much!

even cheaper today. $5.30. It's through Amazon Pharmacy and you have to have a prescription transferred to them (they will do it as I remember) https://pharmacy.amazon.com/Chloride-Generic-Nebusal-Inhalation-Solution/dp/B0B49VMXMD?ref_=sr_1_3&s=amazon-pharmacy&keywords=sodium+chloride+3%25&qid=1682642552&sr=1-3/dp/B0B49VMXMD?ref_=sr_1_3&s=amazon-pharmacy&keywords=sodium+chloride+3

Don't pay attention to the picture. I received vials. Nephron Co.
