INTRODUCTION

Nasivion Classic Adult Nasal Spray is a nasal decongestant used in adults to decongest a blocked nose quickly for fast relief and provides up to 12 hours of easier breathing. It contains oxymetazoline as an active ingredient that helps to reduce swelling and congestion.

Oxymetazoline works by narrowing the blood vessels in the nasal area, thus reducing swelling and congestion, and making it easier for you to breathe.
