About Oxydrops Nasal Solution
Oxydrops Nasal Solution is primarily used to treat nasal congestion (stuffy nose) caused by hay fever (allergic rhinitis), common colds, flu, sinusitis, or other allergic conditions. Nasal congestion, also known as a stuffy nose, occurs when the nasal passages become swollen with excess mucus and fluid.
Oxydrops Nasal Solution contains Oxymetazoline, a nasal decongestant that works by contracting and narrowing the blood vessels in the linings of the nasal passages.
The common side effects are irritation or dryness of the nasal mucosa (tissue lining the nasal cavity), local burning sensation, headache, and nausea. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist,inform your doctor immediately.
Use Oxydrops Nasal Solution as prescribed by your doctor/paediatrician. You are advised to use Oxydrops Nasal Solution for as long as your doctor has prescribed it based on your medical condition. Do not give more than the recommended dose of Oxydrops Nasal Solution.
Inform your doctor if you are allergic to Oxydrops Nasal Solution. Do not use any other medications or supplements with Oxydrops Nasal Solution unless prescribed by the doctor. Avoid sharing Oxydrops Nasal Solution with other people to prevent the spread of infection. Do not exceed the stated recommended dose. Oxydrops Nasal Solution is not recommended for use in children below 12 years of age.
