Scientific Evidence

Xylometazoline hydrochloride, the active ingredient in Farmazolin N, is a potent vasoconstrictor that acts on alpha-adrenergic receptors in the nasal mucosa. This action leads to the constriction of blood vessels, reducing nasal congestion and swelling. Studies have shown that xylometazoline provides rapid relief from nasal congestion with a duration of action of up to 12 hours.

Additional Information

It is important to note that prolonged use of nasal decongestants like xylometazoline may lead to rebound congestion. To prevent this, Farmazolin N Nasal Spray should not be used for more than 3 consecutive days. Consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist.

Research has demonstrated the efficacy of xylometazoline in providing relief from nasal congestion in various clinical trials. A study by Eccles et al. (2007) highlighted the rapid onset of action and long-lasting effects of xylometazoline, making it a preferred choice for nasal congestion relief.

Compared to other nasal decongestants, xylometazoline has shown comparable effectiveness with a favorable safety profile. Its use in Farmazolin N Nasal Spray offers a convenient and reliable solution for nasal congestion associated with allergies and sinusitis.
