Hypertonic Saline

I have just been prescribed 7%hypertonic saline to help with Bronchiectasis. Is this ok to use with the face mask on the nebuliser. It is very salty so not keen on using the mouthpiece.

HiI prefer the mouthpiece as the solution irritates my nose and eyes if i use a mask.

But ultimately it’s what suits you best!

Good Luck

😊
