NASAL SPRAY

PEG WASH

Description

NASAL WASH can be used for daily cleaning of the nasal cavity (isotonic solution) and in every case of nasal congestion such as cold or allergic rhinitis, acute and chronic sinusitis, exposure to smoke, or irritants (hypertonic solution). Thanks to its water affinity, NASAL WASH attracts a large amount of water promoting the hydration of nasal mucosa and the fluidification of mucus secretions. NASAL WASH contains PEG 3350, an inert substance that is not adsorbed from the mucosae and does not irritate the tissue. PEG is a wetting agent. It exerts a moisturising activity, helping to maintain hydration in the irritated mucosa. The product is enriched with sodium chloride and sodium bicarbonate, which are indicated to drain excess secretions from the nasal mucosa. In the case of hypertonic solutions, salts also provide a decongestant effect. Mechanism of action: Nasal irrigation facilitates the cleaning of the mucosa, easing the expulsion of excess mucus, pollen, scabs, and substances accumulated during the day which can compromise normal respiratory well-being. In addition, the expulsion of impurities and the ability to maintain a clean and hydrated mucosa make the nasal wash a complementary treatment to alleviate the symptoms of upper respiratory tract diseases, facilitating the restoration of normal mucosal functions and the rehydration of irritated mucosa.
