What if I prefer a higher concentration of salt solution or hypertonic solution?
Some physicians do recommend hypertonic solutions in certain cases. They believe that a higher concentrated solution will draw the fluid and mucous out of congested nasal and maybe sinus openings. If you prefer higher salinity or hypertonic solution, you can use 2-3 blue packets of the mixture in 240 mL (8 oz.) of water OR use our new green Hypertonic Refill Packet. Each Hypertonic packet will make 240 mL (8 oz.) of hypertonic solution or 480 mL (16 oz.) of Isotonic solution.
