Clear or white mucus
Clear mucus is common with normal mucus production, allergies, irritation, and some respiratory illnesses.
White mucus can also occur when mucus becomes thicker.
Yellow or postnasal drip, saline irrigation may help clear mucus from the nasal passages.
Use appropriately prepared or sterile/distilled water according to product instructions rather than untreated tap water.
Treat allergies when appropriate
If allergies are responsible, addressing the underlying allergy is generally more useful than repeatedly trying to suppress mucus itself.
