A common question I get is whether bacteriostatic water (bac water) can be used for nasal sprays. The answer is yes, it can be used.
However, keep in mind that bac water contains a small amount of benzyl alcohol. While this helps prevent bacterial growth, some people may experience slight irritation in their nasal passages because of it.
For many, it works fine with no issues. For others, sterile water or a saline-based solution might feel more comfortable.
๐ Have you personally noticed any irritation when using bac water for nasal sprays?
