INTRODUCTION
Otrivin Saline Nasal Spray is a nasal decongestant which is used to clean the nasal cavities when nose is blocked during colds or in allergic conditions, moisturises the dry or irritated nose, and help to remove nasal secretions.
It contains sodium chloride as an active ingredient that cleans out your nasal cavities to help eliminate pollutants like dust and other fine particles lingering in the air, which may cause nasal congestion.
Sodium Chloride helps to loosen the thick nasal discharge produced in the nose because of cold or allergic reaction, which makes it easier to keep nasal passages open by washing out dried and thick mucus. It also moistens dry and irritated nasal cavities caused by low humidity.
Always use Otrivin Saline Nasal Spray as directed by the physician. This medicine should not be used after the usage of any other local nasal product.
If you are using this medicine after nasal surgery or injury, consult your doctor once. Ask your doctor before using Otrivin Saline Nasal Spray during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
