I wonder if it's possible and safe to add a mucolytic to the solution for
irrigation.
It's 6 months now that I'm irrigating and the situation is better but not
ok.
What about adding acetylcysteine ? the caps are not so full of chemicals...

I use to add Xylitol and Eucalyptus but not continuosly.

Try adding Alkalol, that is a mucus thinner.

This may sound facetious, but I really wish they would change the name
of that product. Especially for folks who don't speak good English,
"Alkalol" can be confused with "alcohol." And nobody should put alcohol
in their nose (I had an accident like that once and I'll never forget it).

I can relate. ...I rinse my water pik (irrigator) out periodically with
rubbing alcohol. One day I forgot that there was still some left in the
hose and handle. Yeowww!!

AAR, I've never seen alkalol for sale in Canada. ...Even the Pharmacists
here, have never heard of it. ...Is it sold under a particular brand
name in the US, or is it all labelled under the one name? ...And where
in the pharmacy would one look to find it? ..Jon
