About SINOMET NASAL DROPS

SINOMET NASAL DROPS belongs to the class of 'decongestants and antihistamines', primarily used to treat nasal congestion (blocked nose) in common cold, sinusitis, hay fever, perennial and allergic rhinitis. Sinusitis is the inflammation of the lining of sinuses. Allergic rhinitis is inflammation and allergy of the nose that is caused by an allergen, such as pollen, dust, mold, or flakes of skin from certain animals.

SINOMET NASAL DROPS consists of two medicines: Xylometazoline and Sorbitol. Xylometazoline belongs to the class of 'decongestants'. It works by easing the inflammation and blocking of nasal passages by narrowing the blood vessels (vasoconstriction) and thus provides temporary relief from nasal congestion and blockage. Sorbitol is used to moisturize the nasal mucosa and prevents dryness and irritation in the nose.

Your doctor will decide the dosage of SINOMET NASAL DROPS based on your medical condition. The common side effects of SINOMET NASAL DROPS include temporary burning sensation, stinging, dryness in the nose, runny nose, and sneezing. Most of these side effects of SINOMET NASAL DROPS do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, please consult your doctor.

Inform your doctor know in advance if you have any allergic reactions to SINOMET NASAL DROPS or any other medications. Brief your medical history to your doctor if you have any heart, liver, kidney diseases, thyroid disorders, enlarged prostate, urination problems, high blood pressure, and diabetes before using SINOMET NASAL DROPS. Check with your doctor before starting SINOMET NASAL DROPS if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. SINOMET NASAL DROPS is not recommended for children below 12 years of age.

Directions for Use

Nasal drops/spray: Close one nostril by gently pressing on that side of your nose. Now, gently insert the nozzle of the spray bottle into the other nostril.

Key Benefits

SINOMET NASAL DROPS treats nasal congestion or blocked nose in common cold, sinusitis, hay fever, perennial and allergic rhinitis. It consists of Xylometazoline and Sorbitol. Xylometazoline is a decongestant and an antihistamine drug. It works by easing the inflammation and blocking of nasal passages by narrowing the blood vessels (vasoconstriction) and reduces the swelling. This process provides temporary relief from nasal congestion and blockage. As an antihistamine drug, Xylometazoline provides relief from runny nose and sneezing by blocking the action of allergy-causing histamines. Sorbitol is used to moisturize the nasal mucosa and prevents dryness and irritation in the nose.
