The fact that there are multiple sizes and that it’s made out of surgical silicone is great. It’s soft and it includes a little storage case that lets you put the size tube that you chose into so that you can store it and the silicone won’t get dirty, but all four of them won’t fit in the case together.
My problem with the nasal airway opener is that it falls out. I wake up in the morning and I have to find it in the sheets. It’s good that I’m sleeping and I don’t have anyone to be waking up, but it hasn’t stopped me from snoring and i’m still not getting enough air when i sleep. Perhaps one could try a larger size, but I cannot. And that’s due to the nature of my nasal difficulties. I have a deviated septum from a broken nose years ago and a larger size agravates the very thin skin and causes nose bleeds. Mind you, i get these anyway and in no way shape or form would i say this product will cause your nose to bleed, but since my nose often bleeds anyway, this product was sadly not an ideal fit.
I have yet to successfully try other products, but i hope this information is helpful to you.
Okay, 5 stars for me too. I’ve used these for 2 weeks straight and know I won’t be able to sleep without them. I had nostril surgery 4 years ago to rebuild the walls for support and the right one is closing again. I found this on Amazon and although it’s pretty pricey, if it works like for me, it’s worth it. If you feel yourself forcing to breath then either the size is too large or you’ve placed them inside the nostril too deeply. Don’t worry about if they hang out, they don’t fall out (for me anyway). Thanx to all who took the time to write a review and give suggestions.
I have tried several similar products and this is one of the least comfortable. It only slightly helps breathing, and was uncomfortable. To me, the fact that you are adding a tube to your nose means that the nostrils have to be that much wider in order for it work. It also didn’t seem to go in far enough to be effective. I believe it is over priced as it is only three sizes of rubber tubing with a notch cut out of it. I had much better luck with the nosovent.
This product didn’t help my snoring at all. They are also over-priced at $24.94 in my opinion as they are nothing but flexible little plastic tubes. The tubes fit in my nose fine, but I could feel that they were there which was uncomfortable. My partner also told me that my snoring was actually worse the one night I wore them. I do better with breathe-right nasal strips. They aren’t perfect, but I do snore much less when I wear them. I’ll keep looking for a better solution.
Don’t bother, it’s a total waste of money!!!! I followed the directions to the letter and even used a timer. The plastic rolled up before I could pop it in my mouth. In addition, it shrank to the size for a toddlers use. My suggestion, go to your doctor &/or dentist and get the device from a professional. Short cuts do not work with this type of device!!!
This is a fantastic mouthpiece, comfortable to wear, and really stops the snoring. We were sleeping in separate rooms. I just couldn’t tolerate his snoring anymore. And now we’re back together.
I have been using the SnoreMeds mouthpiece for about 4 months now. I am using the third one and about to order a fourth. I have struggled with non-refreshing sleep for 10 years. The mouthpiece let me wake up refreshed! I do not feel drowsy and have much more energy throughout the day. Molding is not a big deal, just remember to push your jaw forward (comfortably) and bite down hard and hold it that way for at least half a minute. Then put the mouthpiece in ice-cold water. I do wake up with a slightly sore jaw/teeth on some days, but it lasts for a few minutes only.
Also, in my experience, the jaw does not remain in the intended position throughout the night. As I fall asleep, my jaws relax and the teeth are a little bit out of the mouthpiece. Despite this,the presence of the mouthpiece does keep the airway open by preventing the collapse of the upper palate.
Just to check, I slept on some days without the mouthpiece, and felt miserably drowsy the next day! I have been diagnosed with sleep apnea and just could not do the CPAP. Although the manufacturers say the mouthpiece is not for those with sleep apnea, I would say it is good as a temporary remedy. I am now considering a dentist-made custom mouthpiece.
This review and recommendation is entirely based on my experience. Hope yours is similar too!
My husband has turned into a terrible snorer. Started a few years ago – mostly towards morning. Has gotten to the buzz saw stage where he starts nearly as soon as his head hits the pillow and goes all night until the alarm clock.
He tried the nose strips and sprays and everything else over the counter. Asked his doctor – advised to lose some weight, stop drinking alcohol, avoid certain foods. And none of that was going to happen with him in any consistency enough to possibly make a difference.
We were at the point of trying a mouth guard. Insurance won’t cover the ones the dentist’s provide (over $600 out of pocket!) unless he went the sleep study route and was diagnosed with sleep apnea. Because we were now fighting over the bed at night (who has to go to the couch) we were ready to go thru this process even though there would still be no garuntee the snoring would stop.
Looked online and couldn’t find enough positive stuff to really point to any one mouth guard as being better over the other so I went with one that was, well, the cheapest. For less than $30 I felt it was worth a shot.
We have both now had 4 nights of totally uninterrupted sleep. Me not being forced to endure the noise and him not getting ‘nudged’ constantly. It was truly amazing as the very first night he used it he ceased totally in the snoring!
This device may not be for everyone’s needs but I highly recommend that if you were anywhere near in the same situation as us to definitely give this a try.
The packaging does say it needs to be replaced every 3-4 months – I will happily do this for the results we are getting.
dont buy it. I havent seen anything like this ever. Tastes horrible. No help what so ever
I bought this for my husband who snore’s and it does not work and i was very surprised because it came highly recommended by amazon users….My husband used it for two weeks strait and it didn’t even work for one! And to top it off he said it burned his throat really bad this product is no good!!!
good product from the seller, hurt my throat a little, but got used to the strips. nice job
This product seems to be the same as those strips that were popular in the candy isles of stores a few years back for bad breath. It didn’t feel like it lubricated anything, but it did have a minty fresh ‘toothpaste’ like flavor. I was quite disappointed to pay $16 for something that used to sell for $3. I give it to my dog to make her breath smell better. I think it’s a waste of money, myself.
I’ve now twice ordered the Breathe Right Nasal Strips, Large, Clear. Both orders were shipped very quickly. Unfortunately, both times I received the tan strips, rather than clear. The color really isn’t the issue. However, the clear strips are for sensitive skin, and the adhesive on the tan strips is way too irritating for my household.
I would never have placed the second order if I’d known it was the same seller. The order and packing slip name the seller as “Potential Dynamix LLC”, but the product info page that comes up when searching for the product calls the seller “DAB Nutrution.” I don’t know if they are doing this to be deliberately misleading, but it is very confusing. Since Amazon fulfills the orders, I don’t even know if the problem is the seller’s or if it’s Amazon’s. Two boxes of strips are packaged together in a pouch. The label on the pouch has the same product number that is shown on the packing slip, but no product description.
Guess I’ll just return the latest shipment, and look elsewhere for the correct product. It’s too bad because the prices is great, and keeps being lowered. However, if they can’t ship the right product good price and fast shipping are meaningless.
My wife often complained about by snoring. There appeared little I could do other than sleeping in the guest room. Then, after I communicated her complaints to my primary physician, I underwent a sleep test. Suddenly the problem became clear. According to the doctor, I was getting very little sleep and my health was deteriorating.
In the test they found that I awakened about three hundred times during the night. They explained that when I became relaxed my Uvula relaxed and closed off my trachea. When I would stop breathing my system would awaken me enough that I could take a breath, but not fully awaken. Since it was happening over three hundred times each night, I was getting little REM sleep.
So I found Breathe Right strips. I do not understand the technology, but somehow I no longer snore and I get better sleep. I strongly recommend these to anyone who snores, and even people who are tired all the time – maybe you do not know you have a problem, I didn’t. Personally, I intend to use these little marvels every night.
BTW: Many months later, my physicians ordered a CPAP machine for me to use while sleeping. With the combination of CPAP and Breathe Right, my sleep has improved greatly and my health has improved.
