I agree with what’s been said. The 7% saline helps me clear more easily than the 3% and the albuterol I rarely use anymore as it wasn’t really helping. I’ve had Bronchiectasis with no MAC for 30 years.

Do you use albuterol also then the 7%. Or just the 7% alone?

If you get a pulmonary lung function test (LFT), it will measure how effective albuterol is.
It increases my lung capacity by 13%. So the saline can get into more places.
