Saline Steri-Neb

How does it work?

These nebules are designed to provide a sterile, isotonic solution of sodium chloride for diluting medicines for administration by inhalation (as a fine mist) by means of a nebuliser. Isotonic sodium chloride (salt) solution contains the same concentration of salt as normal body fluids. Isotonic sodium chloride solution is mixed with medicines so that when they enter the body, they balance with the normal body fluids.
