Yogi's NoseBuddy Neti Pot

• Use only water that has been boiled for 1 minute and cooled to lukewarm, or distilled or sterile water. Never use water straight from the tap.
• Add one level measuring spoon of salt (4.5 g), fill to the 0.5 litre mark and stir until fully dissolved. Plain salt without iodine or anti-caking agents is best.
• Lean forward over a sink, tilt your head to one side and breathe through your mouth. Place the spout in the upper nostril and let about half the solution flow through and out of the other nostril.
• Repeat on the other side, then lean forward to let the remaining water drain and blow each nostril gently, one at a time.
• Use once or twice a day. After each use, rinse the pot and spoon in clean hot water and let them dry fully. Do not share your neti pot.

Safety information

Who should not use it

Not for children unless advised by a doctor or pharmacist. Do not use if your nose is completely blocked, if you have an ear infection or blocked ears, or if you have had recent nose, sinus or ear surgery, unless your doctor advises it.

Warnings & precautions

Only ever use boiled-and-cooled, distilled or sterile water, as untreated tap water can carry germs that are harmful in the nose. Stop using it if you get ear pain or a feeling of blocked ears. Stinging usually means too much or undissolved salt, so measure carefully. Clean and dry the pot after every use and replace it if it becomes worn. See your GP if symptoms last more than 10 days, you have a high temperature, facial pain or swelling, or frequent nosebleeds.

Pregnancy & breastfeeding

No special precautions. Nasal rinsing is a drug-free option, but talk to your pharmacist if you are unsure.

Possible side effects

Mild stinging, a runny nose or a feeling of fluid in the nose or ears just after rinsing. If irritation, nosebleeds or ear pain occur, stop using it and talk to your pharmacist.

Always read the label

Always read the label and the instructions before use. If symptoms persist, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
