What is Sterimar Kids Congestion Relief Nasal Spray?

Sterimar Kids Congestion Relief Nasal Spray is a product that uses natural ingredients to ease a blocked nose. It’s perfect for children aged 3 months to 3 years, using natural sea water to ease congestion and boost their body’s natural defences. Sterimar Kids nasal spray is free from drugs and preservatives, making it ideal for those sensitive little noses.

Why does my child have a blocked nose?

A blocked nose is a really common problem and it usually isn’t anything to worry about. Congestion can happen for lots of different reasons and it will usually clear up by itself in time, although many parents search for a way to relieve their child’s congestion to help them feel more comfortable. Some of the most common causes of a blocked nose include:

• Cold and flu
• Hay fever
• Allergies
• Catarrh
• Sinusitis

How will Sterimar Kids nasal spray help to clear my child’s blocked nose?

Sterimar Kids nasal spray uses natural sea water enriched with copper and magnesium salts to ease congestion in your child’s nose. The solution has a higher salt concentration than the cells in the body, so when it’s sprayed into the nose it draws out excess fluid and mucus, helping to clear the congestion gently. It also helps to wash out the nasal cavities, helping to reduce the risk of secondary infection in their sensitive nose.

Can I give this product to my child if they are taking any other medication?

Sterimar Kids nasal spray is completely drug free and does not contain any preservatives, so it is unlikely to affect any other medication your child is taking. However, if you’re unsure we would recommend asking your doctor or pharmacist if this product is safe for your child before using it for the first time.

How to use this nasal spray

Before use, briefly prime the spray by pressing the nozzle. Place the nozzle into one nostril and press briefly to administer the spray. Do not tilt your head backwards or sniff while administering the spray. Blow your nose to clear any excess from the nose and then repeat the process in the other nostril. Make sure to clean the nozzle thoroughly with soapy water after each use. Use as often as your doctor or pharmacist recommends.
