Does this work for allergy problems, and sinus drip? Thanks

NO! http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=bromelain+sinusitis No "Randomized Controlled Trial" studies that prove they work for allergies.

I run it on the low setting at night in my bedroom and not only have no trouble sleeping, but it helps as it drowns out various noises. Also, I usually wake up with clear sinuses.

I do not have any experience with the type you are talking about. I do like the ozone feature on this one because I believe it helps reduce bacteria on the skin and in my sinuses. I am still very happy with my purchase.

No but if you go to the Ortho Molecular website, I think you can download the list of specific ingredients. Allergies are particularly bad right now in Texas where we are. It works for my wife very well but you have to do the loading dose to start getting the benefits. We also do the sinus rinse product combined with this product by Neilmed. Those two products have been like a miracle for my wife and to my patients with severe seasonalallery symptoms. I have no first hand experience with DAO.

For an adult I think you should try NeilMed's sinus rinse kit, works wonders.

Hi Kelley. Did you end up buying this? I too want to get it for my allergy vials. If you bought this, did it work? Did it end up freezing your allergy vials? Did the allergy vials fit? Thanks!

Yes, it works for colds but be sure to dilute it. A concentrated drop on your skin will burn. Note that it kills good germs as well as bad.

I have used it for months and it still seems to be helping. I have not had a sinus headache since I got it and even seems to help with breathing problems. I also have Himalayan Salt lamps in bedrooms and family room.

Definitely! You can pick up just the packets at most any store that sells medicine. Amazon also sells just the packets. They are pre mixed and just make sure you use distilled or previously boiled ( and cooled) water while irrigating your sinuses. I recommend this to anyone that suffers from sinus problems.

This device is wonderful for an infant for sucking out loose mucus, since the child is unable to "blow his nose." However, if you have a sinus-clogging cold (as I have right now), I can't imagine it being powerful enough to work on clogged sinuses. Sorry. Right now I wish there were such a device!

Yes, this works. My wife and myself used at the bed side and worked good so we bought bigger unit from Sharp. No more allergy suffering from pollen and mold or dust. For the odor removing, it is not like magic wand but works gradually.

I'm thinking of getting the irrigation system. My doctor recommended irrigating the sinuses with salt water, I just make it at home. I used to use a neti pot, but I don't like it so I just use my clean hand cupped and it works better for me. Yes, it does help much. It also prevents colds and the flu. Another thing that helps my allergies to pollens is filtering the air I have a hepa filter that relieves my allergies after filtering the air for 45 minutes, and rinsing out my sinuses, together that helps a lot. I'm thinking of getting the irrigation system, if it'll save me time. I wish some one who had one would post. I'm thinking of getting the irrigation system.

No it doesn't, as you tilt your head as well when using. This is ca great little netti pot... would recommend a nasya oil afterwards to really help your sinuses.

The standard/regular Mucinex is 600mg of guafenisin (spelling questionable) If taken regularly in addition to plenty of water daily, it is very effective at breaking up congestion in my chest and can help with sinus pressure. I hope that helps.

My husband and I have allergies and I'm worse because I have asthma along with all the other sinus/eye/skin issues. We use this filter in the bedroom and we are much better plus it is white noise(on low). I'm level 4 out of 6 on allergy test for dust mites. However, we also use Allersearch Laundry detergent on all bedding too.

Yes it works wonders for that too! I have been wearing one almost everyday with allergy season ;)
