saline for nebulising

Morning everyone, I’m a newbie at nebulising having been helped immensely by my friends on this forum. I’ve been prescribed 0.9 isotonic solution. I’ve had some success at improving my chest clearance but those mucus plugs are very stubborn! On researching I’ve read that saline hypertonic 7% is much more effective. I just wanted to know what others are using and whether I should suggest an upgrade when I next see my resp consultant.

Thank you everyone as always Jo xx
