Medicinal Benefits

Otrivin Moisturising Adult Nasal Drops treats nasal congestion or blocked nose in common cold, sinusitis, hay fever, perennial and allergic rhinitis. It consists of Xylometazoline and Sorbitol. Xylometazoline is a decongestant and an antihistamine drug. It works by easing the inflammation and blocking of nasal passages by narrowing the blood vessels (vasoconstriction) and reduces the swelling. This process provides temporary relief from nasal congestion and blockage. As an antihistamine drug, Xylometazoline provides relief from runny nose and sneezing by blocking the action of allergy-causing histamines. Sorbitol is used to moisturize the nasal mucosa and prevents dryness and irritation in the nose.
