Scientific Evidence

Xylometazoline hydrochloride is a potent vasoconstrictor that acts on alpha-adrenergic receptors in the nasal mucosa, leading to constriction of blood vessels and reduction of nasal congestion. Studies have shown that xylometazoline provides rapid relief from nasal congestion with minimal systemic absorption, making it a safe and effective option for managing nasal congestion.

Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of Rinazal Nasal Spray in providing relief from nasal congestion for up to 12 hours after a single dose. Patients reported significant improvement in nasal airflow and reduction in nasal symptoms compared to placebo, highlighting the effectiveness of xylometazoline in managing nasal congestion.
