How to use Xylocon

How Xylocon works
Xylocon is a nasal decongestant. It works by narrowing the small blood vessels in the inner surface of the nose. This provides temporary relief from congestion or stuffiness in the nose.
Quick Tips
- It works right away and each dose provides relief for up to 12 hours.
- The right way to use the nasal spray:
- Avoid deep breathing as it will cause medication to go back to the throat and make it less effective.
- Do not share the bottle with anyone else so that you do not spread germs.
- Xylocon can make nasal congestion worse if used for more than 3 or 4 days in a row (called rebound congestion).
