Sterimar Stop & Protect Cold & Sinusitis Relief Nasal Spray with Eucalyptus & Copper - 20ml

Sterimar's treatment-strength cold spray in a pump: hypertonic sea water with copper and eucalyptus that decongests in under a minute, helps fight the cold symptoms behind the blockage and eases sinus pressure, with no decongestant drug and no seven-day limit. 100% natural micro-diffused sea water, free from steroids, drugs and preservatives, from the brand GPs recommend most for nasal hygiene. 20ml pump with anti-contamination valve.

The hypertonic salt concentration draws fluid out of the swollen lining by osmosis and opens the nose physically; copper adds a mild antibacterial action on the mucosa; eucalyptus gives the clear-airway feeling. The measured pump dose and sterile valve mean no preservatives and a spray that works in a pocket as well as a bathroom. Use it from the first blocked morning of a cold right through to the end, something a medicated spray can't do.

One or two sprays into each nostril, two to three times a day while blocked, then blow the nose. From 6 years.

Drug-free, so it sits alongside any cold remedy, in pregnancy, and after the seven days allowed on Sudafed Sinus-Ease or Otrivine. Sinus pain with a high fever, swelling around the eye, or lasting more than ten days needs a GP. The 50ml can is the aerosol version of the same idea.
