Otrivine Blocked Nose Relief Spray 10ml

Otrivine Blocked Nose Relief Spray is a nasal decongestant used to relieve nasal congestion caused by colds, sinusitis, allergies, and hay fever. It helps open up the nasal passages to make breathing easier.

Otrivine contains xylometazoline hydrochloride, which works by constricting the blood vessels in the nose, reducing swelling and congestion. This allows air to flow more freely through the nasal passages.

Otrivine typically starts working within minutes, offering fast relief that can last for up to 10 hours. It provides long-lasting decongestion for easier breathing throughout the day or night.

Do not use Otrivine for more than 7 consecutive days, as prolonged use can lead to rebound congestion (a worsening of symptoms after stopping the spray).

Otrivine Blocked Nose Relief Spray is suitable for adults and children aged 12 years and older. There are child-specific Otrivine products available for younger ages such as Otrivine Child Nasal Drops—ask your pharmacist for advice.
