A variable of cold treatment is -- how soon do you know you've got one? I may mist eyes with CS, and rinse hands with CS too as a preventive after being out with people. With the first tickle in the back of the nose or throat, I use my trusty nebulizer. I inhale 5 deep breaths of the mist by mouth (NOT with my mouth around the mouthpiece) then breathe in ten breaths of the mist through the nostrils, moistening all crevices. I've done this one time this past year. No colds. I'm 69. Once, when I had an obvious cold, I used 4 nosedrops of 5 ppm CS in each nostril EVERY 10 MINUTES for 1 hour. Cold gave up instantly.
