Description
Quix Nasal Spray 30 ml
Ingredients
Quix Nasal Spray contains the active ingredient Xylometazoline Hydrochloride, a nasal decongestant that constricts blood vessels in the nasal passages, reducing swelling and congestion.
Mechanism of Action
Xylometazoline Hydrochloride acts as an alpha-adrenergic agonist, stimulating alpha-adrenergic receptors in the nasal mucosa. This stimulation leads to vasoconstriction, reducing blood flow and tissue swelling, thereby alleviating nasal congestion.
Pharmacological Properties
- Xylometazoline Hydrochloride is rapidly absorbed through the nasal mucosa.
- It has a quick onset of action, providing relief from nasal congestion within minutes.
- The duration of action is prolonged, allowing for sustained relief.
Indications for Use
Quix Nasal Spray is indicated for the symptomatic relief of nasal congestion associated with colds, allergic rhinitis, and sinusitis.
