Can you buy distilled ( or some other sort of purified) water in Rome? This is not for drinking. I have a sinus condition that required a regular "sinus wash" . I have to use distilled or purified water or risk a serious infection. I'm flying in so I can't bring my own.
Thanks for your help

Would the distilled water used to fill flatirons up be ok? You can get it in all big supermarkets and in most of the smaller ones.

I’m not familiar with the type required for your needs, but this is the deal.
In any supermarket or food store you should find “acqua distillata” that is used for ironing clothes. Italians put exclusively distilled water in the iron to eliminate the possibility of damage caused by mineral deposits. You will find it generally in the same shelf with detergents and it’s really cheap, just cents.
If you want it really pure, that is good for drinking or medical purposes, then you can find that type at any pharmacy. It costs a bit more, maybe a couple of € per liter.
