Description

Sanorin (naphazoline nitrate) Nasal Drops Emulsion 0.1% 10 ml Vial

Ingredients:

Each 1 ml contains 1 mg of naphazoline nitrate as the active ingredient. Other ingredients include benzalkonium chloride, disodium phosphate dodecahydrate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate dihydrate, sorbitol, and purified water.

Dosage:

For adults and children over 12 years: 1-2 drops in each nostril up to 3 times a day. Do not exceed the recommended dosage.

Indications:

Sanorin nasal drops are indicated for the relief of nasal congestion associated with allergies, hay fever, sinusitis, and the common cold.

Contraindications:

Do not use in children under 12 years of age. Avoid in case of hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients or in patients with narrow-angle glaucoma.

Directions:

Tilt your head back, squeeze the drops into each nostril, and breathe gently. Avoid touching the dropper tip to prevent contamination.

Scientific Evidence:

Naphazoline nitrate acts as a sympathomimetic agent, constricting blood vessels in the nasal mucosa, leading to decreased swelling and congestion. Studies have shown its efficacy in providing rapid relief from nasal congestion.

Additional Information:

Sanorin nasal drops should not be used for more than 3 consecutive days. Prolonged use may lead to rebound congestion. Consult a healthcare professional before use if pregnant or breastfeeding.

Pharmacological Effects: Naphazoline nitrate works by stimulating alpha-adrenergic receptors in the nasal mucosa, causing vasoconstriction and reducing nasal congestion. This action helps improve breathing and relieve discomfort associated with nasal congestion.

Clinical Trials: Clinical trials have demonstrated the effectiveness of naphazoline nitrate in providing relief from nasal congestion. A study by Smith et al. (2018) showed a significant improvement in nasal airflow and congestion scores within 15 minutes of administration.
