Pharmacological properties

Pharmacodynamics.

Xylometazoline is a sympathomimetic agent that acts on α-adrenergic receptors.

Xylometazoline, when administered nasally, causes a narrowing of the blood vessels of the nasal mucosa and adjacent areas of the nasopharynx, thus eliminating edema and hyperemia of the nasal and nasopharyngeal mucosa, and also reduces the associated increased mucus production and facilitates the removal of blocked nasal secretions, which leads to nasal clearance. passages and relief of nasal breathing.

The effect of the drug begins within 2 minutes after application and lasts up to 12 hours (for example, throughout the night).

The drug is well tolerated by patients with sensitive mucous membranes and does not reduce mucociliary function. Research results have shown that xylometazoline reduces the infectious activity of human rhinovirus, associated with the common cold.
