New Saline Soothers offer a welcome relief to cold and allergy sufferers
CINCINNATI, OH, Oct. 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ - No matter what time of year, a runny nose is an unwelcome guest. In fact, according to a new survey done for Nehemiah Manufacturing Co., the makers of Saline Soothers, the vast majority of Americans (93%), think having a runny nose is annoying and 81 percent are annoyed by not having tissues when they need them.
So what does someone do when there are no tissues? As you might expect, they grab something close by. As a result, 41 percent of Americans have wiped their noses on their sleeve and 38 percent have used their hand. Neither of these are very soft or sanitary.
To protect clothing and provide soothing relief Nehemiah has introduced Saline Soothers — gentle wipes for sore noses.
"Colds and allergies can result in noses becoming sore and irritated. Saline nose wipes, like Saline Soothers, provide soothing moisture without irritation and the sterile saline dissolves mucus to help gently clean the nose, " says Dr. Justin Greiwe, MD Board Certified Allergist and Immunologist. "They are made with natural saline, aloe, chamomile and Vitamin E, and are a welcome relief for cold and allergy sufferers."
So what else do Americans do when they have a bad cold?
While drinking a hot beverage and eating chicken soup are the most popular home remedies, almost half of the survey respondents (48%) indicated that they had used saline drops, nasal spray or rinse and 47 percent had tried to soothe their irritated noses with lotion, aloe or Vitamin E.
"Saline Soothers are hypoallergenic and alcohol-free and can help Americans get through the discomfort of having a cold or allergy," says Dr. Greiwe.
Available in fragrance-free or menthol, Saline Soothers come in convenient re-sealable packages of 20 wipes, or multi-packs of three packages (60 wipes) that easily fit into pockets and purses. They are available in the Cough/Cold aisle at Walgreens and Rite Aid and are also available at Amazon.com for the suggested retail price of $2.99 for a single pack and $8.49 for the multi-pack.
