Sodium Chloride nasal wash is indicated for dry nasal membranes including dry nose resulting from cold and allergy medications. It moistens dry nasal passages from dry climates or from airplane travel, may help dissolve mucus from study noses and clears the nose after surgery. This sterile saline solution is also used to cleanse various parts of the body (wounds, body cavities) and medical equipment (e.g. bandages, catheters, drainage tubes). It is also used as a mixing solution (diluent) for other medications used to irrigate the body (e.g. bacitracin, polymyxin).

Sodium Chloride nasal wash is a non-drug, isotonic saline solution that is used to moisturize nasal membranes. This formulation provides comfort for extensive and continuous use.

Sodium Chloride 0.9% nasal wash moistures inside the nose by dissolving and softening thick or crusty mucus thus helps to remove the mucus from the nose and makes breathing easier. Excess sodium is predominantly excreted by the kidneys with small amounts lost in faeces and sweat.

Nasal Congestion: In infants, 1-2 drops of Sodium Chloride nasal wash in each nostril before feeds will help relieve congestion and allow more effective suckling.

Ear Wax Removal: Allow the Sodium Chloride nasal wash to warm to room temperature before use. It is important to put the drops into the ear carefully. Lie down on one side and fill the ear canal with the drops and wait for a few minutes before standing up. Age: from 6 months onwards. Put 3 to 4 drops into the affected ear(s) 3 to 4 times a day for 3 to 5 days.
