What Is Nasofed Saline Nasal Spray?

Action principle

Nasofed saline nasal spray is a nasal topical drug for the treatment of rhinitis. It is mainly composed of a nasal wash and a nasal wash. The Nasofed saline nasal spray is based on the principle of biocompatibility and contains saline lotion and plant lotion essence. With the aid of a certain pressure of the nasal washer, the irrigation liquid is delivered to the nasal cavity to achieve the purpose of cleaning the nasal cavity. Through the impact of salt water, it can promote the movement of cilia in the nasal cavity, which can wash away allergens, bacteria, viruses, inflammatory secretions and other dirty things in the nasal cavity, reduce the inflammation and irritation of the nasal mucosa, and provide a clean and refreshing environment for the nasal cavity.

Function

1. Improve mucociliary function, improve nasal mucociliary transmission function, and promote the recovery of physiological function of nasal mucosa.

2. Keep the nasal cavity moist, remove the secretions covering the mucous membranes, avoid further bacterial infection, improve the phenomenon of nasal obstruction and smooth drainage.

3. Using the exudation effect of normal saline, it can effectively reduce mucosal edema, reduce inflammatory cell infiltration and reduce cytokines in interstitial fluid, and reduce the inflammatory response of nasal mucosa.

4. Washing with salt water can clean harmful substances or pathogens on the mucous membranes, so as to prevent health care and stabilize the disease.

5. Adjuvant treatment of nasal inflammation and infection, relieve dry nosebleed symptoms.

Steps for usage

1. Clean the nasal cavity: keep the nasal cavity clean first, blow out the secretions in the nasal cavity, and gently wipe with a tissue to ensure a clean environment in the nasal cavity;

2. Prepare the medicine: Shake the bottle of thenasofed saline nasal spray gently to fully shake the medicine. Keep the head in the natural position, put the nozzle of the nasal spray into the nostrils, and keep the nasal spray bottle basically vertical to ensure the correct position of the sprayed liquid;

Features

1.Security

Because only saline water is used for saline nasal wash, there is no drug, it belongs to physical therapy, and it has more advantages than drug therapy and surgical treatment in terms of safety. Moreover, the tools required for nasal washing can be purchased in the market, and the operation does not require strict training. The patient can operate at home after simple study according to the manual, avoiding the trouble of waiting in line at the hospital.

2.Limitation

Nasal rinsing with saline can eliminate the symptoms of rhinitis, but it cannot cure rhinitis. At present, there is no cure for rhinitis, including existing drugs, surgery, and physical therapy. If the symptoms disappear after the patient washes for a period of time, once they stop washing, various symptoms of rhinitis will soon come back. Therefore, although saline nasal washing works well, this method is slow to be effective and requires long-term adherence. It is necessary to wash your nose once or twice a day. You must be patient and persist for a long time before it is effective.

Precautions

Nasofed saline nasal spray is for external use, not internal use,and should be used with caution in patients with nasal mucosal injury.

Nasofed saline nasal spray should be used with caution in children under the age of 6 because the pressure of the irrigation can be enough to swell their nasal mucosa.

The nozzle of the nasal spray may become clogged after a week of use and can be cleaned by soaking it in warm water and then rinsing with water. If the patient feels that the nasal symptoms cannot be relieved and improved by using the nasofed saline nasal spray, they can go to the hospital for further treatment.

Summary

Although nasofed saline nasal spray can improve rhinitis to a certain extent, the effect will be better if it is combined with drug treatment in life.
