Sodium Cromoglycate 20 mg per mL

Xylometazoline Hydrochloride acts as a sympathomimetic decongestant that constricts nasal blood vessels and helps reduce congestion. Sodium Cromoglycate acts locally on the nasal mucosa as a mast cell stabilizer, helping prevent the release of mediators involved in allergic reactions.

Two sprays into each nostril twice daily, or as directed by the physician.

  • Do not exceed the recommended dosage, especially in children and older adults.
  • Do not use decongestants for more than seven consecutive days unless directed by a physician. Prolonged or excessive use may cause nasal congestion to return or worsen.

Precautions
