Nasal Mist Spray, Non-Aerosol
GENERIC NAME(S): Sodium Chloride
OTHER NAME(S): Nasal Mist Aerosol, Spray
Uses
This product is used to treat dryness inside the nose (nasal passages). It helps add moisture inside the nose to dissolve and soften thick or crusty mucus. In babies and young children with stuffy noses who cannot blow their noses, using this product helps to make the mucus easier to remove with a nasal bulb syringe. This helps relieve stuffiness and makes breathing easier.
This product contains a purified gentle salt solution (also called saline or sodium chloride solution). It does not contain any medication.
