Otrivine Extra Dual Relief Nasal Spray treats nasal congestion with runny nose (rhinorrhea) caused by common colds that gets to work in just 5-15 minutes and lasts for 6-8 hours. It contains 2 active ingredients to treat nasal congestion, runny nose, sinus pressure and sneezing simultaneously in adults over 18 years:
- Xylometazoline hydrochloride: this has a decongestant effect and works by reducing the diameter of blood vessels in the nose to reduce nasal mucosal swelling.
- Ipratropium bromide: this reduces nasal mucus secretion to help relieve a runny nose.
