Scientific Evidence
Naphazoline, the active ingredient in Sanorin nasal spray, is a sympathomimetic agent that constricts blood vessels in the nasal passages, reducing swelling and congestion. Studies have shown its effectiveness in providing rapid relief from nasal congestion.
Additional Information
- It is important to follow the recommended dosage and not exceed the stated frequency of use to avoid potential side effects such as rebound congestion.
- Pharmacological Effects: Naphazoline acts by stimulating alpha-adrenergic receptors in the nasal mucosa, leading to vasoconstriction and decreased nasal blood flow, which helps alleviate congestion.
- Clinical Trials: Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of naphazoline in providing relief from nasal congestion associated with various conditions, with a rapid onset of action and sustained effect.
