Clear the nose by blowing gently. Tilt the head slightly backward. Instill the prescribed number of drops into each nostril. Keep the head tilted for a few moments to allow the drops to spread. Avoid sharing the bottle to prevent contamination. Do not use for more than 7 consecutive days to avoid rebound congestion.

Xylometazoline acts as an alpha-adrenergic agonist, primarily on alpha-1 receptors in the blood vessels of the nasal mucosa. This causes vasoconstriction, leading to reduced blood flow, decreased swelling, and alleviation of nasal congestion.

• •Known hypersensitivity to xylometazoline or any component of the formulation.
• •Patients with narrow-angle glaucoma.
• •Patients with rhinitis sicca (dry rhinitis) or atrophic rhinitis.

Symptoms of overdose may include severe central nervous system depression (e.g., drowsiness, coma), marked hypertension followed by hypotension, bradycardia, and hypothermia. Children are more susceptible to systemic effects. Treatment is symptomatic and supportive, including gastric lavage (if ingested) and respiratory support.

Use during pregnancy and lactation should only be done if clearly necessary and after consulting a doctor, as there is insufficient data on human exposure. Systemic absorption is minimal, but caution is still advised.
