    Pharmacological properties

    Pharmacodynamics. Xylometazoline is a sympathomimetic agent acting on α-adrenergic receptors.
    Xylometazoline, when administered nasally, causes a narrowing of the blood vessels of the nasal mucosa and adjacent nasopharyngeal areas, thus eliminating edema and hyperemia of the nasal and nasopharyngeal mucosa, and also reduces the associated increased mucus production and facilitates the removal of blocked nasal secretions, which leads to clearing of the nasal passages and relief of nasal breathing.
    The action of the preparation begins 2 minutes after application and lasts up to 12 hours.
    The preparation  is well tolerated, including by patients with sensitive mucous membranes, and does not reduce mucociliary function. Laboratory results indicate that xylometazoline reduces the infectious activity of human rhinovirus, which is associated with the common cold.
    Thanks to the moisturizing components (sorbitol, hypromellose), the preparation Farmazolin with mint and eucalyptus, a nasal spray, helps with dryness and irritation of the mucous membrane of the nasal passages. The preparation has a balanced pH value within the range characteristic of the nasal cavity.
    Pharmacokinetics. When applied topically, the preparation is almost not absorbed, the concentration of xylometazoline in the blood plasma is so low that it is almost undetectable (the concentration in the blood plasma is close to the detection limit).
    Xylometazoline is not mutagenic. Also, in animal studies, no teratogenic effects of xylometazoline have been identified.

    Indications

    Symptomatic treatment of nasal congestion with colds, hay fever, other allergic rhinitis, sinusitis; to facilitate the outflow of secretions in diseases of the paranasal sinuses; auxiliary therapy in cases of otitis media (to eliminate swelling of the mucous membrane); to facilitate rhinoscopy.

    Application

    Adults and children over the age of 12: 1 injection into each nasal passage up to 3 times a day.
    Apply no more than 3 times in each nasal passage per day. The duration of treatment depends on the course of the disease and should not exceed 10 consecutive days.
    The dosed spray ensures dosing accuracy and proper distribution of the solution over the surface of the nasal mucosa. With each injection, 0.14 g of solution is injected, which corresponds to 0.14 mg of xylometazoline.
    Before use, it is necessary to bring the dispensing device into readiness by performing several injection movements until the spray begins to be released into the air. On further use, the dispenser will be ready for immediate use.
