Key Information
Short Description
Nasowel Nasal Spray is used to treat nasal congestion caused by the common cold, flu, hay fever, and other allergies. It shrinks blood vessels in the nose to relieve congestion.
Dosage Form
Nasal Spray
Introduction
Nasowel Nasal Spray should be used as advised by your doctor. It provides temporary relief from nasal congestion but should not be used more often or for longer than recommended. Blow your nose gently before using it, keep one nostril closed while applying the medicine into the other, and then sniff hard to ensure it reaches deep into the nose. Repeat for the other nostril. Relief is quick and can last for several hours. Overuse may worsen symptoms. Common side effects include burning sensation in the nose and throat, local irritation, nausea, headache, and dry nose. Consult your doctor if these persist. Inform your doctor about any health problems like heart issues, high blood pressure, overactive thyroid, glaucoma, or prostate enlargement before using this medicine. Seek advice before using if pregnant or breastfeeding.
Directions for Use
Use this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Insert the bottle tip into one nostril and close the other nostril. Direct the spray towards the sides of your nostril, away from the cartilage dividing the two sides of your nose. As you spray, breathe gently and keep the head upright. Repeat the same process for the other nostril.

How it works
Nasowel Nasal Spray is a nasal decongestant. It works by narrowing the small blood vessels in the inner surface of the nose, providing temporary relief from congestion or stuffiness.
Quick Tips
Nasowel Nasal Spray works right away and each dose provides relief for up to 12 hours. Shake the bottle before using the medicine. Clean your nose thoroughly before using the medicine. Insert the bottle tip into one nostril and close the other nostril. Direct the spray towards the sides of your nostril away from the cartilage dividing the two sides of your nose. Breathe out gently through your mouth and repeat the same process for the other nostril. Nasowel Nasal Spray can make nasal congestion worse if used for more than 7 days in a row (called rebound congestion). Avoid deep breathing as it will cause medication to go back to the throat and make it less effective. Do not share the bottle with anyone else to avoid spreading germs.
