Comprehensive Drug Guide
How Does Oxiavarry Work?
Oxymetazoline works by stimulating alpha-adrenergic receptors in the smooth muscle of blood vessels in the nasal mucosa. This stimulation causes vasoconstriction, reducing blood flow to the area, which decreases nasal swelling and congestion.
Common Dosages
- Nasal spray: Common strength is 0.05% or 0.1%.
Typical Dosing
- Adults and Children (6 years and older): The usual recommended dose is 2 to 3 sprays in each nostril every 10 to 12 hours, not to exceed 2 doses in 24 hours.

Who Shouldn't Take Oxiavarry?

Advice From The Pharmacist
