Please Use drop Maximum for 10 days. Otherwise you will suffer from rhinitis medicamentosa. If you have HTN then use saline nasal drop as xylometazoline drop can raise your BP.

No. You need to meet an ENT Specialist immediately as it is probably a nasal or sinus infection causing crusting that is blocking your nostrils. Otrinoz will only worsen your discomfort.

Xylometazoline acts on adrenergic receptors of nasal mucosa to relieve the congestion by constricting the inflamed or swollen nasal blood vessels.
If you are a patient of high blood pressure or suffering from any cardiac ailment please avoid the drug.
Otherwise you may feel free to use it. Better not take overdose.

Dear Lybrateuser,
-Do steam inhalation twice a day
- you can use xylometazoline drop but only for 3-4 days, prolonged use cause weakening of nasal mucosa & hence chronic infection
- consult an entire specialist for proper management.

Relaxed. Nothing will happen by using it once or twice. Now use normal saline drops when nose is really blocked and causes difficulties in feeding or sleeping.

It is definitely not advisable to use xylomatazoline for more than 3 to 5 days. It will definitely give excellent immediate relief for short period but it increases swelling inside nose and worsens sinusitis.
