Scientific Evidence

SeptoAqua nasal spray has been studied in clinical trials for its efficacy in relieving nasal congestion and improving nasal moisture. Research has shown that the hypertonic saline solution in the spray can help reduce nasal swelling and improve nasal airflow.

Additional Information

Warnings: If symptoms persist or worsen, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

Pharmacologically, SeptoAqua nasal spray works by drawing water into the nasal passages, thinning the mucus, and helping to clear congestion. The sodium chloride in the spray helps to reduce inflammation and swelling in the nasal tissues, providing relief from nasal symptoms.

In a comparative study published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, hypertonic saline nasal irrigation (such as that found in SeptoAqua) was found to be more effective than isotonic saline in improving nasal symptoms and quality of life in patients with chronic sinusitis. This highlights the effectiveness of hypertonic saline solutions in managing nasal conditions.
