SinuAir™ is a scientific formulated moisturizing and irrigation solution for the nose that is both effective and economical.

It is convenient and easy to use by just mixing with water. Useful as both an isotonic or hypertonic solution.

Each SinuAir Nasal Wash System contains:

The nose is supposed to moisten inhaled air, which help to maintain a moist environment for the cilia in the sinuses. Any dryness, itching, or crusting in the nose means that a moisturizer is needed for the nose to do it's job. These cilia are the body's first line of defense against infection. Saline nose drops are used for most nasal and sinus conditions. They can help relieve dryness, crusting, and aid normal nasal function. Saline sprays can also be used to prevent and treat nose bleeds.

The problem with sprays is that some preservatives are added to insure a long shelf life and can be irritating to the nose, especially when the nose is irritated already. SinuAir™ Nasal Wash was developed as a means of providing a solution for the dry irritated nose without the use of some of the preservatives that can irritate nasal membranes.

EZ Squeeze™ Nasal Wash Bottle

For years we have recommended our customers use the Sinupulse Elite pulsating nasal irrigation system for chronic sinusitis, nasal congestion and after exposure to excess dust, certain industrial chemicals and heavy pollen days. What many of them asked for was a portable system that was easy to use and effective.

The SinuAir Nasal Wash System includes every thing needed for a proper nasal irrigation and can be used just about anywhere. One nasal wash system can be used for about 80 treatments, unlike the other nasal wash devices that are used once and need to be replaced. Key features of the SinuAir nasal wash bottle include:

The preservative Benzalkonium Sodium causes problems with nasal sprays. Around 1985, it was noted that the number and severity of cases of rhinitis medicamentosum was increasing with increased use of benzalkonium, an antibacterial preservative found in most over-the-counter prepared saline nasal spray products. Rhinitis medicamentosum means that the nose gets stuffy and congested after use of nose drops such as oxymetazoline (Afrin™).

The more the nose drops are used, the more "rebound" when the drug wears off, that is, the worse the patient gets after the drops wear off, requiring more and more use of the drops. The drops become effectively addictive, and worse, the nose is always stuffy anytime the drug is not active in the nose. Next, it was discovered that you could get rhinitis medicamentosum just form the Benzalkonium alone, as well as saline with Benzalkonium. So, it wasn't the nasal medication oxymetazoline that was responsible, but the Benzalkonium. The oxymetazoline did shrink the nose nicely, but the benzalkonim caused a rebound congestion.
