I usually irrigate once a day using saline. I have my attendant for the saline into a container and then use the syringe/bulb to irritate the bladder. It's an irrigation kit.
Do you guys reuse your irrigation kits? I had to start reusing my syringe (I think it's spelled Tomey). I've been using any mixture of vinegar and water. Let me know what types of mixture here using it you are claiming irrigation kits.
