Otrimer Cold & Sinus
Natural nasal spray for rapid relief of nasal congestion.
Active Ingredients
Sea water ( hypertonic at 2.2% sea salt concentration )
Essential oil of Eucalyptus globulus
Extract of wild mint.
Indications
Otrimer Cold & Sinus with Eucalyptus is a preservative-free metered dose nasal spray containing natural hypertonic sea water combined with essential oil of Eucalyptus and extract of wild mint. The undiluted solution also retains the richness of all the important minerals and microelements contained in sea water, such as calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc.
During a cold the inflammatory process results in the swelling of the nasal mucosa, blocked nose and increased mucous production.
The hypertonic sea water creates a pressure difference between the solution and the mucous membrane (osmotic effect), helping to reduce the swelling of the nasal passages. The product also softens and loosens the excess mucous and helps to remove bacteria and viruses from the nose.
Hypertonic sea water solutions differ from isotonic sea water solutions as the sea salt concentration is optimized at 2.2% to effectively relieve nasal congestion. This concentration also ensures that the solution is gentle enough to be compatible with the nasal mucosa.
Otrimer Cold & Sinus with Eucalyptus is a natural, intense nasal decongestant which;
- quickly relieves nasal congestion in less than 3 minutes
- provides effective, natural relief from nasal congestion (blocked or stuffy nose) due to colds and rhinosinusitis by reducing nasal swelling.
- helps to prevent the development of further infections by:
- its purifying action which clears the nasal passages
- helping to remove mucous-trapped bacteria and viruses from the nose
- provides an immediate sensation of relief and freshness.
- has a non-drying effect, moisturizing the nasal cavities.
Otrimer Cold & Sinus with Eucalyptus may also help to reduce the need for medicated decongestants.
