Respibien belongs to the group of medicines known as sympathomimetics, and can be distributed without prescription in any pharmacy, as is the case of Farmaciasdirect, which is accredited by the Spanish Medicines Agency for the distribution and sale of this type of product.
It is a nasal decongestant medicine containing oxymetazoline as its active ingredient. Oxymetazoline administered through the nose causes local constriction of the blood vessels, decongesting the nasal mucosa. Respibien antiallergic is a specific variant of the product designed for people who also suffer from allergies, helping to relieve nasal congestion caused by allergic reactions. It is indicated for the local and temporary relief of nasal congestion in adults, adolescents and children over 6 years of age.
Side effects: Like all medicines, Respibien may cause side effects, although not everybody gets them. Possible side effects include dryness or irritation of the nasal mucosa, sneezing and, in rare cases, more serious effects such as tachycardia or headache. It is important to read the Respibien package leaflet for detailed information on these side effects and their frequency.
The price of Respibien may vary depending on the place of purchase and the presentation of the product. However, by law, it cannot exceed a 10% discount in any place of sale or distribution of medicines.
Adults, adolescents and children over 6 years of age:
1 spray into each nostril no more than 2 times in 24 hours. This medicine is for nasal use. Before using this medicine, you should remove any existing nasal fluids by blowing your nose thoroughly. If you are using this product for the first time or have not used it for a long time, it is necessary to charge the spray bottle.
To do this, hold the container away from the body and press the sprayer several times until a finely atomised liquid comes out. To avoid contagion, after each use and before closing the container, the end of the applicator should be wiped with a clean, damp cloth. In addition, each canister should only be used by one person.
User reviews of Respibien indicate that it is effective in relieving nasal congestion quickly, although some mention that prolonged use can lead to a feeling of dryness in the nose. If it worsens or if it does not improve after 3 days of treatment, discontinue treatment and consult your doctor.
Use in children: Do not use in children under 6 years of age.
Pregnancy: Pregnant women should consult their doctor before using Respibien, as nasal decongestants may not be safe during pregnancy. Although there are no known serious adverse effects, it is always best to be cautious and discuss use with a healthcare professional.
Over 65 years of age: Consult your doctor or pharmacist, as older people are more sensitive to the adverse effects of this medicine.
