Instructions
DIRECTIONS:First time use: Thoroughly wash the bottle, tube and cap with warm soapy water using a bottle brush to clean all surfaces. Rinse all components with tap water. Thoroughly dry all components with a clean paper towel.
Fill the bottle to the 200mL FILL Line using lukewarm pre-boiled water. Always boil water for 1-2 minutes before cooling until lukewarm. NOTE: If more convenient, boiled water may be stored in a clean container in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours. You may re-heat the water in the FLO® bottle using a microwave oven in 5 second bursts.
Cut or tear open one sachet of FLO® powder. Using the guidelines, fold out sachet into a funnel shape and pour the entire contents into the FLO® bottle.
Screw the cap and tube firmly onto the bottle and shake until all powder has dissolved.
The mixture is now ready to use.
Standing next to a basin, bend as far forward as is comfortable and tilt the head down so that the chin is as close to the chest as is comfortable.
While breathing through the mouth, apply the cap firmly up against one nasal passage and squeeze the bottle steadily and gently until solution drains from the opposite nasal passage or from the mouth. Do not swallow the solution. (If solution is accidentally swallowed no harm will ensue.) This should be done until about half of the solution has been inserted into the one nasal passage. It is important to remove the bottle from the nostril prior to hand pressure being released. This allows the bottle to “breathe” clean air and avoids aspiration of contaminants from the nose into the bottle. In this way, the douche solution remains clean.
Once half of the solution has been used, stop and then gently blow the nose. If the solution is being used post operatively, then consideration should be given as to whether nose blowing is permitted, or whether this would interfere with healing and post operative results.
Repeat the procedure on the other nostril.
USAGE ADVICE:Non-medicated nasal and sinus wash to help optimise recovery following sinus surgery.
DOSAGE:FLO Post Operative is recommended for use prior to and following surgery. Use as often and for as long as directed by your ENT Surgeon.
