Cordless Pulsatile Nasal Wash
The NeilMed®Sinugator®cordless Pulsating
Nasal Wash™ is an easy to use system that
allows you to deliver the saline solution
with positive and pulsatile pressure to
clean the nasal passages thoroughly.
Step 1: Please wash your hands. Fill the clear
blue reservoir with 240 mL (8  oz) volume of
lukewarm, distilled, micro-ltered (0.2 micron)
or previously boiled and cooled down water.
Step 2: Cut the SINUS RINSE™mixture
packet at the corner and pour its contents
into the blue reservoir of the Sinugator®.
Place the white motor unit over the blue
reservoir and rotate until locked. Swirl the
unit thoroughly to dissolve the mixture.
Step 3: Standing in front of a sink, bend
forward to your comfort level and tilt your
head down. Keeping your mouth open,
without holding your breath, place the tip
snugly against your right nasal passage
or nostril. Press the blue power button
until the solution starts draining from
your left nasal passage. Depending on
the head position, residual solution may
drain from your mouth. We suggest to
spit it out, however, there is no harm, if
accidentally swallowed. For a proper
rinse, keep pressing the power button
until at least 1/4 to 1/2 (60 mL to 120
mL or 2 to 4  oz) of the solution is used
for one nostril. Stop pressing the power
button if you feel any discomfort, pain
or pressure during the irrigation.
Step 4: Blow your nose very gently,
without pinching nose completely
to avoid pressure on eardrums. If
tolerable, sniff in
gently any residual
solution remaining
in the nasal
passage once or
twice, because
this may clean
out the posterior nasopharyngeal area,
which is the area at the back of your nasal
passage.
Step 5: Now repeat steps 3 and 4 for
ushing your left nasal passage or nostril.
Cleaning Directions: Clean the
Sinugator®by running plain water and dry
with a clean lint free towel and then air dry the unit by
keeping it open to the air. The nasal irrigator tip, blue
reservoir and white soft tube can be disinfected by
placing in the home microwave for 60 seconds. (Read
additional details in enclosed brochure.) Clean the
entire unit with a few drops of dishwashing liquid and
water every three days to keep the unit clean. Please
make sure to run enough water during each wash so
no soap is left behind

Tips To Avoid Ear Discomfort
While Rinsing
If you have had ear surgery, please contact your
physician prior to irrigation.
Do not use if you have an ear infection or
blocked ears.
Rinse with lukewarm distilled, ltered or
previously boiled water.
Keep your mouth open.
Do not hold your breath while rinsing.
While rinsing, make sure to tilt your head.
Stop the rinse if you feel a sensation of uid
near your ears.
Most importantly, always blow your nose
very gently.
To Avoid Unexpected Drainage
After Rinsing:
In rare situations, especially if you have had sinus surgery,
the saline solution can pool in the sinus cavities and nasal
passages and then drip from your nostrils hours after
rinsing. To avoid this harmless but annoying inconvenience,
take one extra step after rinsing: lean forward, tilt your head
sideways and gently blow your nose. Then, tilt your head
to the other side and blow again. You may need to repeat
this several times. This will help rid your nasal passages of
any excess mucus and remaining saline solution. If you nd
yourself experiencing delayed drainage often, do not rinse
right before leaving your house or going to bed.
Rinse your nasal passages only with NeilMed®SINUS RINSE™ sachets. Our sachets contain a mixture of USP grade sodium
chloride and sodium bicarbonate. These ingredients are the purest quality available to make the dry powder mixture. Rinsing
your nasal passages with only plain water will result in a severe burning sensation. Always Use Distilled, Micro-Filtered (through
0.2 micron), Commercially Bottled or Previously Boiled & Cooled Down Water at Lukewarm or Body Temperature, properly mixed
with NeilMed®SINUS RINSE™ sachets. Do not use tap or faucet water for dissolving the mixture unless it has been previously
boiled and cooled down. Do not rinse if nasal passages are completely blocked or if you have an ear infection or blocked ears. If
you have had recent ear or sinus surgery, contact your physician prior to irrigation. If you experience any pressure in the ears or
burning in the nasal passages, stop irrigation and get further directions from your physician. Keep out of reach of children. Read
and retain the enclosed brochure, if provided, for instructions and other important information. Components inside of this unit are
not for individual sale. Do not discard this printed box and any enclosed printed material. The product inside may not have all the
