Sudafed Blocked Nose Spray is a fast-acting, prescription-strength nasal decongestant formulated to provide rapid relief from severe nasal congestion. Each 15ml bottle contains 0.1% Xylometazoline Hydrochloride, an active ingredient that works quickly to shrink swollen blood vessels in the nasal passages, making it easier to breathe.
This targeted nasal treatment is recommended for the short-term relief of nasal congestion associated with:
Colds, flu, and acute upper respiratory tract infections
Sinusitis and sinus pressure
Allergic rhinitis and hay fever
Xylometazoline Hydrochloride (0.1% w/v): A potent topical decongestant that stimulates alpha-adrenergic receptors in the nasal mucosa, causing immediate vasoconstriction. This reduces swelling and mucus production, opening up blocked airways within minutes.
Do Not Use for More Than 7 Days: Using this nasal spray continuously for more than 7 consecutive days can cause a rebound effect, leading to chronic, severe nasal swelling and dependency. Always restrict use to short-term episodes.
Cardiovascular Caution: If you suffer from high blood pressure (hypertension), heart disease, diabetes, an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism), or glaucoma, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using xylometazoline.
Standard Adult & Adolescent Dosing (12+ years):
Spray 1 spray into each nostril up to 3 times daily as needed.
How to Apply:
Blow your nose gently before use.
Remove the protective cap.
Hold the bottle upright, insert the nozzle into one nostril, and close the other nostril with your finger.
Pump the spray once while breathing in gently through your nose.
Repeat for the other nostril. Wipe the nozzle clean and replace the cap.
Dosage Limit: Do not exceed 3 applications per nostril in any 24-hour period.
While generally well-tolerated for short-term use, potential side effects can include:
Temporary local stinging, burning, or dryness inside the nose after spraying
Sneezing or mild nasal irritation
Rare systemic effects like headache, jitteriness, or increased heart rate in sensitive individuals
Store below 25°C or 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat.
Discard the bottle 28 days after first opening to prevent bacterial contamination.
Keep strictly out of reach and sight of children.
No. The 0.1% strength is formulated strictly for adults and children aged 12 years and older. Younger children require lower-strength pediatric formulations under medical guidance.
Prolonged use beyond 7 days damages the delicate lining of the nasal passages and triggers chronic rebound congestion, making your blocked nose permanently worse without the spray.
