We seemed to go straight from heating to the air-conditioning being on, as the temperatures have been in the high 70's to 80, this past 2 weeks. Again we both started with dry noses, throats, and an annoying cough.
I recently went to Walgreens drugstore, and they had NeilMed NasoGel Drip Free Gel Spray for $4.99, with a $1 manufacturer's coupon. I then received $5 back, in the form of a register coupon. They gave me $1.01 to try their product. Thank you very much.
On the box it states: "With sodium hyaluronate for dry noses. For dryness caused by indoor heat, dry climate, air travel, high altitude, oxygen use."
Once home, I opened the box, and it has a 32 page booklet, which I quickly flicked through. There was an introduction to the product, physician and customer testimonials, instructions, and directions, for their many products, and several pages of questions, and answers.
I had the 30 ml (1 fluid ounce) spray bottle in front of me. I took off the clear plastic top, and then removed the navy blue safety clasp.
Next I held down on the 2 areas at the side of the pump, and held them down for 4 seconds. I then let it come back up, and repeated this until the gel started to spray. It states to do 2 to 4 sprays in each nostril. I did the 2 sprays in both of them, the first time I used it.
You should replace the safety clasp, and the clear cap each time, so it doesn't dry out.
I did this over a sink, as I wasn't sure what was going to happen. After a few minutes I had a very small amount of liquid coming from both my nostrils. I wiped it away with a Kleenex tissue.
This can be performed every 4 to 6 hours.
The first day I used it, my nose was still a little dry, and I figured it was because I hadn't use the maximum amount. I did it 3 times. My cough was a little better, and another thing I hadn't realized before, was that my eyes were slightly watery, and blurred. This seemed to improve too.
I checked in the booklet and the first question was about the advantages of sinus rinsing. When I read the answer it states: "When you perform a nasal rinse, you wash away excess mucus and allergy-causing irritants such as pollen, dust particles, pollutants and bacteria."
I remembered seeing on television, that pollen right now, is in the highest level. I then changed my mind about having a cold or cough, and thinking that it has been allergies.
It has now been 4 days, and my eyes, nose, and cough are all improved. I can't say that I am 100%, but I now feel that I am heading in the right direction.
Len continued on with the cough medicine, cough drops, Vitamin C, and seems to be lagging behind me.
The NasoGel spray pump has approximately 214 sprays per bottle. It is a "water soluble and saline based gel with Aloe Vera and Sodium Hyaluronate is an excellent moisturizer for dry nasal passages."
I have found it really easy to use, and it works well. Just remember that when you spray, you may get a little coming back down, your nostrils.
It has also helped me at night. Before I started using it I would have cough medicine before bed, a cough candy when I started coughing in bed, and then would get up in the night, and put Vick's under my nose, around my neck, and on the top of my chest.
I am very pleased that I found NeilMed NasoGel Drip Free Gel Spray for Dry Noses. It is like coming out of the dark, and into the light again. So if you wondering if you have a cold, cough, allergies, etc., then perhaps you should try this product too.
