octenisan® md nasal gel

Fields of Application

The hydrophilic properties of octenisan® md nasal gel ensure efficient moisturising of the nasal vestibules. The moisturising effects of hydrogel promote a favourable physiological milieu which prevents the settlement of bacteria. Furthermore, restoring the physiological functions of protection and cleaning contribute to effective decontamination of e.g. particle, skin residuals and multiresistant pathogens. Irritated skin underneath the nasal opening is also supplied with moisture through the hydrogel and thus can heal optimally. Epithelial cells must be able to proliferate and migrate for the healing process. This is best possible in a moist wound environment.

Instructions for use

Unless otherwise prescribed, use octenisan® md nasal gel up to twice a day as needed. octenisan® md nasal gel is for use in the nasal vestibules only. Apply the gel e.g. with a cotton swab in a sufficient quantity to the frontal area of the nose (nasal vestibules), so that the surface is completely covered. For this purpose insert octenisan® md nasal gel into the nostril, close the nose by pressing on the side and then massage between thumb and finger. This ensures an even distribution of the gel. If needed, the nose should be thoroughly cleaned before with a wet cotton swab. Excessive gel is removed with a cotton swab. Make sure that a moist film remains. Direct contact with the opening of the tube must be avoided to prevent contamination with germs.
