Oxymetazoline Hydrochloride 0.05% w/v
Temporary relief of nasal congestion due to common cold, allergic rhinitis (hay fever) and sinusitis
Oxymetazoline is a topical alpha-adrenergic agonist. It constricts blood vessels in the nasal mucosa, reducing swelling and congestion and improving airflow.
For intranasal use only. Adults and children ≥6 years: 1-2 sprays in each nostril, 2-3 times daily as needed. Blow nose gently before use; keep head upright while spraying. Do not use for more than 3 consecutive days unless advised by a doctor.
Common side effects of Nasivion Classic Adult Nasal Spray may include:
Do not exceed recommended dose or duration; prolonged use may cause rebound congestion (rhinitis medicamentosa). Use with caution in hypertension, heart disease, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, glaucoma, and enlarged prostate. Avoid use in children under 6 years unless prescribed. Seek medical advice if symptoms persist beyond 3 days or if severe irritation/bleeding occurs.
