Flush Away Nasal Symptoms

Many patients with postnasal drip syndrome, allergic rhinitis, or sinusitis use nasal saline solution erratically and only a few drops at a time. Be sure to tell patients that they must flush their nasal passages with a generous amount of saline solution at least 4 or 5 times a day to have an effect.
