pharmachologic effect

A vasoconstrictor drug for topical use in ENT practice (decongestant). Xylometazoline has an alpha-adrenomimetic effect: it causes narrowing of the blood vessels of the nasal mucosa, eliminating edema and hyperemia of the nasopharyngeal mucosa. Xylometazoline also reduces concomitant mucus hypersecretion and facilitates drainage of blocked nasal passages and thus improves nasal breathing in case of nasal congestion. Otrivin® is well tolerated by patients with sensitive mucous membranes its effect does not prevent mucus separation. Otrivin® has a balanced pH value characteristic of the nasal cavity. The menthol and eucalyptol contained in the preparation have a cooling effect on the nasal mucosa, giving a feeling of freshness. In therapeutic concentrations, the drug does not irritate the mucous membrane,does not cause flushing. The effect occurs 2 minutes after application and lasts for 12 hours. In vitro studies have shown that xylometazoline in humans suppresses the infectious activity of the rhinovirus that causes the cold".
