Sodium Bicarbonate+sodium Chloride

Sodium Bicarbonate+sodium Chloride belongs to a group of medicines called 'nasal decongestants' used to treat sinonasal disease. The sinonasal disease includes chronic rhinosinusitis (Chronic sinusitis occurs when the spaces inside your nose and head (sinuses) are swollen and inflamed for three months or longer, despite treatment), allergic rhinitis (also known as hay fever, is a type of inflammation in the nose which occurs when the immune system overreacts to allergens in the air), and viral upper respiratory infections (common viral infection that affects the nose, throat, and airways).

Sodium Bicarbonate+sodium Chloride is a combination of two drugs: Sodium bicarbonate and Sodium chloride. Sodium Bicarbonate+sodium Chloride both are sodium salts. Both of the salts work together to provide moisture in the nasal cavity so that the thick mucus softens. This, in turn, helps to clear out the mucus from the nose and relieves the nasal (nose) blockage. This is how it helps in easy breathing and also treats dryness of the nose by providing enough moisture.

In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as ear fullness, burning or stinging of the nasal mucosa, epistaxis (bleeding from the nose). Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
