Instructions for use for SNIVEX 0.1% Nasal Dosing Spray, 10mL

Application instructions

The total dose should not be exceeded without consulting a doctor or pharmacist.

Type of application?
Spray the medicine into each nostril. Breathe lightly through your nose while spraying. Beforehand, clean your nose by blowing your nose vigorously. Before the first use, you should pump several times until a spray mist is created. To avoid infections, the medicine should only be used by one patient at a time.

Duration of application?
The medicine should not be used for longer than 7 days. Reapplication should only be carried out after a break of several days. You should always ask your doctor about the duration of use for children.

Overdose?
If the medicine is used as described, there are no known symptoms of overdose. If you accidentally swallow large quantities, contact a doctor immediately. Among other things, nausea, fever, cramps, cardiac arrhythmias, high blood pressure, breathing problems, sleepiness and a drop in body temperature can occur.

In general, pay attention to careful dosage, especially for infants, small children and older people. If in doubt, ask your doctor or pharmacist about any effects or precautions.

The dosage prescribed by the doctor may differ from the information in the package insert. Since the doctor adjusts it individually, you should therefore use the medicine according to his instructions.

Mode of action

How does the ingredient of the medicine work?

The active ingredient contracts the dilated veins in the mucous membrane of the nose and eyeballs again. This reduces the excessive blood flow to the olfactory and visual organs and causes the mucous membrane to swell. Patients can breathe more freely through their noses again. In addition, it no longer runs constantly. Annoying redness and non-specific irritations on the eyes disappear.

Hints

What should you pay attention to?
- The medicine itself may cause a feeling of stuffy nose. If you try to eliminate this feeling with the help of this remedy, you risk permanently damaging the nasal mucosa. The effect can occur after just 5-7 days of use.
- There may be medicines that interact with. You should therefore generally tell your doctor or pharmacist before starting treatment with a new medicine that you are already using. This also applies to medicines that you buy yourself, only use occasionally or that were used some time ago.
