Otrivin Oxy Fast Nasal Spray helps clear a stuffy nose by using a special ingredient called oxymetazoline hydrochloride. This ingredient shrinks the blood vessels in your nose, reducing swelling and congestion, so you can breathe more easily.
Otrivin oxy fast nasal spray contains oxymetazoline hydrochloride and works by shrinking the blood vessels in your nose. It tells the blood vessels in your nasal passages to get smaller, which reduces swelling and congestion. With less swelling, you can breathe more easily because there's more room for air to flow through your nose.
So, when you use a nasal spray with oxymetazoline hydrochloride, it helps clear up your stuffy nose and makes breathing easier when you have a nasal infection.
The usual composition of Otrivin Oxy Fast Relief includes oxymetazoline hydrochloride at a concentration of 0.05%. Your doctor will determine the appropriate frequency and amount of sprays for your specific needs.
