effects from hypertonic saline

[anonymous]

For those of you that are using the hypertonic saline - how long before you started feeling effects from it? Right away? What is the percentage that you inhale and how often. I am considering using it although I have never had much of a cough or never really even cough anything up however I guess that doesnt mean that nothing is there to bring up. So that is why I am thinking about using it.

Well I like using it, I use 7% and at first it made me cough but now Im used to it, but I still feel results. I can feel results imediatley after the use, cause I can feel the mucous and what not moving around, can never cough anything up but can tell its working. I ve always been that way with coughing stuff up, once in a blue moon I might be able to but other than that nothing. I would recommend using it, it has brought my pfts up also. I went from 65% to 82% so its well worth it, some people may be different tho.

When I was young I used to have trouble coughing up anything at all. Then gradually I did, but it became hard to do because of how thick it was. Lemme tell you, though, the hypertonic will kick your butt the moment you start inhaling it! It'll give you a headache from all the coughing until you get used to it (at least it did me). I also use the 7%.

I only use 3% atm, and it works plenty. Going anywhere above 5% will make you feel it though. lol
