Fast Acting Nose Drops Nasl
Generic Name: DECONGESTANT DROPS - NASAL
Fast Acting Nose Drops Nasl Uses
This medication is used for temporary relief of congestion in
the nose caused by various conditions including the common cold,
sinusitis, hay fever, and allergies. It works by narrowing the
blood vessels in the nose area, reducing swelling and
congestion.
Do not use this medication in children younger than 2 years
unless specifically directed by the doctor. To decrease the risk
for serious side effects, carefully follow all of the doctor's
dosage directions. Do not give other cough and cold medication that
might contain the same or similar ingredients (see also Drug
Interactions section). Ask your doctor or pharmacist about other
ways to relieve cough and cold symptoms (e.g., saline nose
drops/spray, using a humidifier or infant nasal suction bulb).
How To Use Fast Acting Nose Drops Nasl
Use this medication in the nose as directed. Follow all
directions on the product package, or use as directed by your
doctor. If you are uncertain about any of the information, consult
your doctor or pharmacist.
To apply nasal drops, wash your hands first. To avoid
contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your
nose or any other surface. If needed, have another person place the
drops in your nose.
Gently blow your nose before using this drug. Tilt your head
back while sitting on a chair or lying down. Hold the dropper over
the affected nostril and apply the directed number of drops. Keep
your head tilted for a few minutes. Repeat these steps with the
other nostril if needed. Do not swallow the medication if it drips
into the throat.
This medication provides only temporary relief. Do not use more
medication or use it more often or for longer than directed because
doing so may increase the risk of side effects. Also, do not use
this medication for more than 3 days because doing so may cause a
condition called rebound congestion. Symptoms of rebound congestion
include long-term redness and swelling inside the nose and
increased runny nose. If this occurs, stop using this medication
and consult your doctor or pharmacist.
Inform your doctor if your condition worsens or persists after 3
days.
