Frequently asked questions
Can I give Nasopil Paediatric Nasal Drops to my child continuously for more than 2 weeks if he has on and off nasal congestion?
No, it is recommended not to give Nasopil Paediatric Nasal Drops to your child for more than 10 consecutive days, as it may lead to complications such as atrophic rhinitis. Additionally, it is essential to follow the prescribed dosing schedule to avoid rebound congestion. If you have any concerns, consult your child's doctor.
What if I give too much of Nasopil Paediatric Nasal Drops to my child by mistake?
An overdose of Nasopil Paediatric Nasal Drops can cause severe symptoms, including dizziness, perspiration, lowered body temperature, headache, bradycardia, hypertension, respiratory depression, coma, and convulsions. Children are more sensitive to toxicity than adults, so it is crucial to seek immediate medical attention from your child's doctor if an overdose occurs.
How to use Nasopil Paediatric Nasal Drops in my child?
Before administering Nasopil Paediatric Nasal Drops, ask your child to clear their nose by blowing gently. Have your child lie down and look up. Tilt their head back as far as comfortable, or if lying on a bed, keep their head over the side. Open the cap of the medicine container and apply the medicine into each nostril without touching the nozzle to the nose. Have your child keep their head tilted back for a short time to allow the drops to spread throughout the nose. Replace the cap right after use. If the drop completely misses the nose, administer the drop again. If any part of the drop gets into the nose, do not administer the drop again. Repeat for the other nostril. Clean and dry the nozzle before replacing the cap right after use. To avoid the possible spread of infection, the bottle should only be used by one person.
When should I call my child's doctor right away?
Call your child's doctor immediately if your child experiences signs such as insomnia, dizziness, tremor, irregular heartbeat, or elevated blood pressure after using Nasopil Paediatric Nasal Drops.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Nasopil Paediatric Nasal Drops?
Nasopil Paediatric Nasal Drops may interact with other medicines or substances. Inform your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Nasopil Paediatric Nasal Drops. Also, consult with your child's doctor before giving any medicine to your child.
In what position should I make my child sleep when he is having a stuffy nose?
When your child has a stuffy nose, it is recommended to have them sleep on their back with a pillow to help the mucus drain out. Avoid having your child sleep on their side, as this may increase congestion in one or both nostrils. If you have any concerns, consult with your child's doctor.
