We'll let you know the moment Otrivin Advance Adult Nasal Spray is back in stock.
Otrivin Advance Adult Nasal Spray is a medicine containing Xylometazoline hydrochloride 0.1% w/v (1 mg/mL) nasal spray. It is used for nasal congestion due to common cold, allergic rhinitis (hay fever), sinusitis, may help open blocked nose and improve breathing. It belongs to the group of medicines called Topical alpha-adrenergic agonist (imidazoline derivative).
For adults and adolescents ≥12 years: 1 spray in each nostril up to 2-3 times daily as needed. The dose and how long you take it depend on what you are being treated for and how you respond. Do not take more, or for longer, than your doctor has advised.
The side effects seen most often with Otrivin Advance Adult Nasal Spray are nasal dryness, burning or stinging in nose/throat, sneezing and irritation. Most are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. Tell your doctor if one persists or worries you.
Before you start, tell your doctor about any liver, kidney or heart problem, whether you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding, and every other medicine you take, including supplements and ayurvedic preparations. Some of them can change how Otrivin Advance Adult Nasal Spray works.
Most side effects of Otrivin Advance Adult Nasal are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:
Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
For adults and adolescents ≥12 years: 1 spray in each nostril up to 2-3 times daily as needed. Use for a maximum of 3 consecutive days unless advised by a doctor. Blow nose before use; keep bottle upright and avoid sharing the spray.
Xylometazoline is an alpha-adrenergic agonist that constricts blood vessels in the nasal mucosa. This reduces swelling and mucus congestion, improving airflow through the nose.
Do not use for more than 3 days (risk of rebound congestion/rhinitis medicamentosa). Use with caution in hypertension, heart disease, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, enlarged prostate, glaucoma. Avoid in atrophic rhinitis or after certain nasal surgeries unless prescribed. Seek medical advice if symptoms persist/worsen. Not recommended for children <12 years for this strength. Do not exceed recommended dose.
Apply it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for the next application, skip the missed one — applying extra does not make up for it.
An overdose of this medicine may cause a racing heart, restlessness and a rise in blood pressure if swallowed. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
MAO inhibitors (or within 14 days), tricyclic antidepressants, other sympathomimetics/decongestants, certain antihypertensives (may reduce control of blood pressure)
