It may take a week. If it takes longer I would suggest go and see your doctor. Try and stay away from dairy, sugar , and wheat products. Tea Tree mouth wash a couple of times might help to. Khering

Oreganol P73 is more beneficial as an alternative to antibiotics, it helps strengthen the immune system. I found that since I have been using it for almost 2 years now I am never sick. I still need to use guaifenesin (like in Mucinex) to break up congestion. My immune system is a lot stronger since I've been taking a few drops daily and allergies are less of a bother but it doesn't seem to reduce congestion by itself. Hope that helps and good luck

It seem to break my cold up but it was kinda slow on clearing up my cough but I might not have taken enough. I will wait until I get sinus again and try again,. It has really helped my grandson with his acne. I mix a few drops with Jojoba oil and he uses it at night and the bad one he puts it directly on the pimple. So I will continue to use it.

Hi--just travelled up north with a bottle of Thieves' spray, and it stayed good the entire time. I felt a cough coming, so I used it on the plane, and a few times while abroad, and got better by the next day. This product is fantastic.

I think it depends on the number of ice packs you use. Typically you should get about 5 to 8 hrs.

If you get congested, you might want to put DoTerra EO Breathe in it. That keeps me clear all night.

Hey Rebekah! This is the kind of product that you will want to use in intervals. I believe it is recommended to take for 60 days then take some time off. Your body will eventually get used to the dosage and instead of upping it (which can be dangerous) it is suggested you let your body recover from the tolerance.

I have never used the product overnight. I am afraid that I really cannot answer. The total relief time is in about 10 minutes and lasts a total of 1-3 hours.

I am not sure there is any difference. I would call the company and ask them. We have the first one, works wonderful and cough and congestion I had for a year went away after a few days of use. Love it and my Dr is a believer and recommends it to all his patients.

When you feel a bit cold symptoms ,a cold is not fully formed,take a bottle of right away, it is very effective, if symptoms persist, a bottle of every 6 hours,if there is no help to you,if there is no help to you, will go to see a doctor, I will see effect is a bottle.

You would not really see any gunk come out normally, unless you do have a bad infection, but it should nonetheless help overall with how your nasal passages feel afterwards and how clear they feel. To help with drainage after using the machine within the first 15 minutes of use bend forward at the waist, with arms behind back, holding this position for up to a minutes. You will be quickly grabbing a kleenex.

I recommend starting slowly with little time until you build up tolerance. I do it about 10 minutes per day.

I would recommend no sooner than an hour ! even after that, there is a slight residual ozone odor, but if you can open windows and doors, it will be totally gone sooner.

I found it to work incredibly well last year, when I started taking the product when everyone I knew was coming down with the flu or bronchitis.Also if you feel like you are coming down with something and double up your dosage, symptoms abate.Would definitely give it a try. I am still taking it and haven't had a cold or flu in 16 months.

Sept 2017 - I too have used it for decades...as are many I've told of it. No extra side effects, no toxicity. I take them morning and night year 'round. Augmenting with the 4hr version as needed when allergies are most prevalent. After starting these, I bad sinus infections and bronchitis goodbye.

It's all about IRRIGATION of the sinus cavity, not a removal of blocked mucus that must be blown (usually by blowing your nose) or otherwise medically removed (i.e. antihistamine, ibuprofen, etc.). Also bear in mind that it will take a week or so (or 2 x per day usage) to really receive the benefits. I used this when I was deployed to dusty Afghanistan and this stuff REALLY helped with my sinus allergies and within a couple of weeks, my morning headaches went away and all was well. So, give a some time and you may even have to double-up the dosage until you feel the effects. I use warm water and put a lil' bit of pressure (i.e. squeeze a lil' bit harder than "gentle") and alternate nostrils to flush out both sides. I don't think you're doing anything wrong per se, just give a lil' bit more time. Don't tilt your head back or you'll swallow it. It'll feel kinda weird at first, but if it burns then you may need more saline solution in the mix. Don't do it right before bed or it'll drain a lil' bit on your pillow as you sleep. Hope this helps.

This product is immediate release and has been helpful with congestion. I have the beginnings of COPD, and this helps to open my airways. Hope these remarks were helpful.

I'm not sure. I use it before I go to bed and sometimes before going to work. It's supposed to last 4 hours I think. I believe it really helps. I have it for sinus pain and congestion too. As well as for aromatherapy.
