Hi! My vet recommended I do nebulizer treatments on my piggie with a URI and said to use a saline solution.. does anyone have recommendations on what to buy? Is it contact solution or these saline packets? *Attached pictures* Or am I better off making my own with a teaspoon of salt and half a liter of water? Thank you!

Making your own will work just as well but either of these will do, as will a weak solution of F10 antiseptic.
Any mild disinfectant helps to kill off any bacteria or other bugs in the respiratory system.

Okay great thx! I will try out the saline packets as it seems the F10 isn’t available for me to ship to the US :)
