Talk to your pharmacist. The neti pot is used to flush out the sinus passages and eliminate sinus pressure and allergens that cause allergy symptoms. If you have problems with allergies or sinuses, ask your pharmacist what you can do to help alleviate these symptoms. Ask them their opinion of the neti pot, what they know about it and if they have recieved any positive or negative feedback from other people who have tried using the device. In addition to giving you some very helpful information, your pharmacist may carry the neti pot and have it available for you to purchase or be able to tell you where you can buy one.

Purchase your neti pot new. The neti pot is a medical device and it comes in contact with human skin and bodily fluids. For this reason, only purchase a neti pot that is brand new, sterile and that has not been used by anyone else. Avoid shopping on websites that sell merchandise secondhand.
