I found a product called Nasaline. I decided to try it over the traditional squeeze bottle with the packets because I could never get the squeeze bottle to fully dry, and I worried about something growing in there.

Anyway, the Nasaline comes with the large syringe, a cap with an opening that fits over the tip of the syringe (it is removable and has no tube attached), a cup, and the saline packets. You just pull the plunger out and can disassemble it completely. It cannot be boiled, but it can so easily be washed and cleaned with alcohol. Each piece can be laid out to dry.

It is great. The small cup that comes with it is filled to the line with water, and the packet is added. It allows for the syringe to be filled 4 times, so twice for each nostril.

Just google Nasaline. I saw that even Walmart carries it on line. It is very sturdy and is, I think, so much easier to keep germ-free. You also don’t have the issue like you get with the squeeze bottle, where you end up with squeezing air near the end and trying to squeeze up every little bit. With the Nasaline, you just slowly press in the plunger to push the solution up your nose. I love it. Seriously- try it!
