The most common causes of a runny nose are various viruses, allergens, or pathogenic bacteria. They provoke inflammation of the mucous membrane and its swelling, copious discharge from the nose, interfere with breathing through the nose, eating and sleeping peacefully at night.

To combat such symptoms in children, they often use vasoconstrictor medications. One of the medications in this group is Nazivin. In what forms is it produced, how does it affect the child’s body, what dose is recommended in childhood and how to properly apply Nazivin to a child’s nose over a year old?


Release form and composition

The drug is produced in the form of almost clear liquid, which has no color or has little yellow tint. The main ingredient of this solution is oxymetazoline in the form of hydrochloride. The concentration of this substance varies, as does the packaging of the medicine. Nazivin is presented in pharmacies:

  • Drops in the nose. They are available in glass bottles equipped with special pipettes on the cap. The concentration of such a drug can be 0.01%, 0.025% and 0.05%. The drug with the lowest dosage is intended for children under one year old and is presented in a 5 ml bottle. Drops with a concentration of 0.025% and 0.05% are available in 10 ml in one bottle. In addition to oxymetazoline, they contain disodium edetate, dihydrogen phosphate and sodium hydrogen phosphate, as well as water, sodium hydroxide and benzalkonium chloride.
  • Nasal spray. It is produced in plastic bottles that have a sprayer. Inside one bottle there is 10 ml of solution, and the concentration of oxymetazoline in it is 0.05%, which corresponds to a dosage of 500 µg/1 ml. Additional components The medications are citric acid, glycerol, benzalkonium chloride, purified water and sodium citrate.


In addition, Nazivin Sensitive can be seen in the assortment of pharmacies. The main component of this medicine (oxymetazoline). Possible indications negative effects and the contraindications are completely the same as for regular Nazivin. First of all, the drug labeled “sensitive” is intended for children prone to allergies, since it does not include benzalkonium chloride and is less likely to cause an allergic reaction.


One of the forms of Nazivin Sensitive are drops that contain 0.01% of the active ingredient and are used in the treatment infants. For children older than one year, the medication is produced in the form of a dosed spray:

  • With an active ingredient content of 11.25 mcg per dose, which corresponds to a concentration of 250 mcg/1 ml.
  • Containing oxymetazoline in 1 dose in the amount of 22.5 mcg, that is, with a concentration of 500 mcg/1 ml.

Each of these medications is available in 10 ml bottles and contains approximately 220 doses of medication. The bottles are made of plastic and equipped with a special dispensing device.

Operating principle

The active compound Nazivin affects alpha-2 adrenergic receptors, resulting in a narrowing small vessels which are located in the nasal passages. Use of the medicine:

  • Reduces swelling and hyperemia of the nasopharyngeal mucosa.
  • Reduces the volume of nasal discharge.
  • Helps restore breathing through the nose.
  • Additionally, it affects the paranasal sinuses, as well as the middle ear, preventing complications of a runny nose in the form of sinusitis or otitis media.
  • Renders therapeutic effect only at the processing site.
  • Does not provoke redness and irritation of the mucous membrane inside the nasal passages.


The medication begins to act literally in the first minutes after it enters the nose, and vasoconstrictor effect after treatment with the solution lasts up to 12 hours.

Indications

In childhood, Nazivin is in demand:

  • In the treatment of ARVI, if the disease manifests itself as a runny nose.
  • In the treatment of allergic rhinitis.
  • In the treatment of rhinitis, which is called vasomotor.
  • In combination with other medications for eustachitis, adenoids, otitis media or sinusitis.
  • Before performing any diagnostic manipulations in the nasal passages.


What forms are used for children over one year old?

For infants, 0.01% drops are produced, but for older children, the amount of active compound in this Nazivin will be insufficient. At the age of one to six, drops containing 0.025% oxymetazoline are prescribed. For the treatment of children over 6 years of age, a 0.05% solution in any form is prescribed.



As for Nazivin Sensitive, only a spray is used in children over one year of age, one dose of which contains 11.25 mcg of the active ingredient. A more concentrated product containing 22.5 mcg of oxymetazoline in each dose is used from the age of six.


What to choose?

Choosing the most optimal shape medications for a child, first of all, take into account the concentration of the drug, after which they are determined by the packaging. Let us note that it is very convenient to use both types of Nazivin - the drops are easily dosed and fall directly into the baby’s nose thanks to the curved shape of the pipette built into the lid, and the spray is sprayed with a light pressure over the entire mucous membrane in the required dose. However, in practice, the spray form seems more suitable to most mothers, since you do not need to lie down to administer the drug, and the risk of overdose with such a drug is minimal.


Contraindications

Treatment with Nazivin is prohibited:

  • If you are hypersensitive to oxymetazoline or another ingredient of the solution.
  • For angle-closure glaucoma.
  • With rhinitis occurring in an atrophic form.

If a child has any diseases of the cardiovascular system, diabetes mellitus is detected, or there is thyrotoxicosis, Nazivin should be dripped or injected with caution.



Side effects

TO side effects include:

  • Sometimes after administration of Nazivin into the nose such negative symptoms occur local symptoms, such as a feeling of dryness, sneezing, slight burning, discomfort in the nasal passages.
  • After the cessation of action, reactive hyperemia is often observed and the child begins to complain of nasal congestion.
  • In some children, the drug provokes restless behavior, nausea, sleep disturbances, fatigue, and headaches.
  • Long-term use of the solution/drops causes addiction and medicinal rhinitis. In addition, very long treatment capable of causing atrophic changes nasal mucosa.

  • Veronica, 45 years old: “Nazivin for children copes well with my grandson’s nasal congestion. He is 5 years old, but trips to the garden in the cold season always end with him getting sick. I tried many drops: Pinosol, Otrivin, but we were unable to get the same effect as from Nazivin. All we have to do is drip the child’s nose for 3-4 days, and the cold immediately goes away.”

Comparison with other drugs

With Nazol

The drug is produced specifically for the treatment of runny nose in young patients. With this treatment, it is possible to very quickly eliminate a runny nose, the cause of which is allergies, colds or viruses. If Nazivin does not help with a stuffy nose in a child, then you can try this remedy.

Nazivin affects very quickly and strongly, powerfully affecting the delicate mucous membrane of the nose. If you choose between these two drugs, you should be guided by the age of the baby.

With Otrivin

Nazivin, unlike Otrivin, contains a smaller percentage of the main component. For this reason, Nazivin has a safe effect on children, but this does not affect its effectiveness in any way.

The medicine can be purchased at a pharmacy at a price of 190 rubles.

What to do if the remedy does not help

As noted earlier, the duration of treatment with the presented remedy should not exceed 5 days. If relief does not occur during this period, then you should consult a doctor. After examining the child, he will be able to draw a conclusion about the advisability of further use of Nazivin or prescribing another drug. In this case, you should not make independent decisions, otherwise you can harm the baby.

What happens if an adult drug is instilled into a child?
