Mixing one saline packet to 8 fl oz (240ml) of water creates an Isotonic saline solution (Hypertonic with 2 saline packets) that is PH balanced and preservative free. |
|
|
Isotonic solution |
1 saline packet per 8 fl oz (240 ml) |
|
Hypertonic solution |
2 saline packets per 8 fl oz (240 ml) |
|
An Isotonic solution has a gentle salt concentration of 9 mg of Sodium Chloride per ml of water, similar to your body's salt level. It can be more comfortable for some initially than a stronger Hypertonic solution. A Hypertonic solution has a higher salt concentration, akin to ocean water's salt content. |
