Sodium Bicarbonate + Sodium Chloride

Sodium Bicarbonate + Sodium Chloride Nasal Preparation is a combination of two electrolytes, which work together to help clear nasal congestion and relieve symptoms associated with sinusitis, allergies, and other respiratory conditions.

Sodium chloride is an electrolyte that helps to restore the balance of fluids in the body, while sodium bicarbonate is an alkalinizing agent that helps to neutralize acid in the body. Together, these two ingredients help to reduce inflammation and mucus buildup in the nasal passages, allowing for easier breathing.

 

Sodium Bicarbonate + Sodium Chloride Nasal Preparation is indicated for the relief of nasal congestion and associated symptoms in adults and children. It can be used to treat symptoms associated with:

  • Sinusitis
  • Allergic rhinitis
  • Environmental irritants
  • Nasal surgery
  • Nasal congestion due to the common cold

The recommended dose of Sodium Bicarbonate + Sodium Chloride Nasal Preparation is 1 to 2 sprays into each nostril, up to three times per day. The solution should be sprayed directly into the nostrils while the head is upright.

Before using the nasal spray, blow the nose gently to clear any mucus from the nasal passages. If the nozzle becomes blocked, remove it and rinse it with warm water.
