Key Benefits

  • Fast Action Relief from Blocked Nose: The volatile essential oils in the inhaler vaporise immediately upon use, providing rapid relief from severe nasal congestion. These vapours stimulate cold receptors in the nose, tricking the brain into feeling increased airflow.
  • Clears Nasal Passages Quickly: Formulated with high-potency menthol, it actively helps to open up constricted airways. This airway-clearing action makes it easier to breathe through the nose during severe colds.
  • Eases Breathing Difficulty Instantly: By delivering cooling vapours directly to the inflamed nasal mucosa, this nasal congestion inhaler reduces the sensation of breathlessness often caused by respiratory infections.
  • Soothes Cold and Cough Relief Symptoms: While it targets the nose, the soothing effects of camphor help reduce the overall discomfort, headache, and sinus pressure associated with common cold and cough relief.
  • Symptomatic Relief for Sinusitis: The penetrating vapours help drain congested sinuses, alleviating the heavy, stuffy nose feeling and facial pressure that accompanies acute sinusitis.
  • Portable and Convenient Double Pack: The Vicks inhaler double pack offers uninterrupted relief. Its ultra-compact design acts as the perfect pocket nasal inhaler, allowing you to carry airway relief wherever you go.
