Safe Neti Pot Use

The Food and Drug Administration offers these guidelines for proper use of a Neti pot to address clogged sinuses and nasal congestion: wash and dry your hands before each use, thoroughly clean the Neti pot and dry before each use, and use clean water (distilled, filtered, or boiled) to create a saline rinse solution, and always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
