Drops from the common cold for adults

What are the best drops in the nose from the cold, for children, adults, from stagnation

Rhinitis is a symptom that says that the nasal mucosa tries to get rid of the germ, allergen, foreign body or dust, washing them out of the nasal cavity. The congestion of the nose testifies to the edema of this same membrane.

In both of these cases, assistance is needed in the form of a local remedy - drops or sprays. The main requirement for these drugs, be it a nose spray or a drop - to help the nasal mucosa in solving the problem, and not just to eliminate the stuffiness or discharge of the nozzles.

Below, we will list the groups of drugs that are used from nasal congestion and runny nose, indications for use, duration of action and prices. To say the same, what type of medication is needed, no one is better than an ENT doctor who will do it according to the results of the examination, can not.

Important rules

In order for the cold remedy to really help, follow these rules:

1. Use drops for children under 6 years, and spray for adults. This is due to the fact that in children the auditory tube, that is, the communication between the pharynx and the ear, is short. If a spray splashes into the baby's nose, he, as well as particles of microbes from the nasopharynx, are more likely to enter the inner ear. There they are most likely to cause otitis - allergic or infectious.

2. Using drops, lay down (lay the child), drip 1-2 drops of the drug in the right nostril and turn the head to the right, slightly tipping it up. Dripping into the left nostril, turn your head to the left and up. At the same time on each side you need to lie for 7-10 minutes, so that the agent could get not only on the nasal mucosa, but also in the area of ​​the nose with the sinuses. This rule is especially important for vasoconstrictive drops: by properly instilling, you will quickly relieve nasal breathing, and also prevent sinusitis (swelling in the area of ​​the junction of the sinus and the nose will subside - the contents of the sinus will not stagnate, but will come out outside).
3. When using a spray, on the contrary, the head should be vertical and tilted to the opposite nostril side. So the drug will remain in the nose, and not move into the auditory tube.
4. Before applying medical sprays from the common cold, rinse your nose with saline solutions. This can be done with the help of ready-made drops and sprays, which we will discuss below, or solutions that require preparation (Dolphin, Aqua-Maris powders with a system for washing the nose). Rinse the nose can also be bought at a pharmacy, a solution of sodium chloride in a bottle of 200 or 400 ml, and also the composition prepared independently (for 200 ml of boiled warm water one teaspoon is taken salt).

Types of drops from the cold

What kind of nasal drops can be used? There are such groups of drugs:

1. Preparations based on salt solutions.
2. Vasodilating drops and sprays.
3. Hormonal sprays.
4. Sprays for liquefaction of a thick discharge from the nose.
5. Drops and sprays with antibiotics or antiseptics (including those based on silver).
6. Antiviral topical preparations.

8. Drops that will thicken abundant liquid snot.
9. Homeopathic preparations.
10. Drops and sprays with immunomodulating effect.
11. Drops in the nose from an allergic rhinitis.

Preparations based on salt solutions

Medications based on oceanic, sea water or similar solutions prepared in a pharmacy contain many trace elements, organic compounds, minerals. They are shown in the rhinitis of any (allergic, viral, bacterial, fungal) origin, any kind of sinusitis (sinusitis, frontitis), inflammation of adenoids. Their action is aimed at:

• leaching of microbes from the nasal cavity;
• thinning of thick mucus;
• the leaching of substances released during inflammation and the levels that support them;
• acceleration of mucosal healing;
• increase in the tone of the vessels of the nasal mucosa;
• destruction of microbes (if water contains iodine).

Depending on the concentration in solutions of sodium chloride, several types of saline solutions are isolated:

Hypotonic solutions

In them, the NaCl concentration is lower than in the blood (less,%), so they are absorbed by the mucous membrane of the nose, dilute the viscous mucus, soften the dry crusts in the nose. Hypotonic solution is issued only as one drug - Aquamaster, where sodium chloride is 5%. The price is 190-210 rubles.

Isotonic solutions

They contain,% NaCl, so they are not absorbed by the mucous membrane, but also "draw" from it a swollen fluid. They wash the microbes and allergens from the mucous membrane, moisturize it and saturate it with the necessary trace elements.

There are in the form of a large number of drugs, the price of which is different. It:

1. Aqua-Maris. The price is 220-290 rubles.
2. Humer 150 costing 580-700 rubles.
3. Physiomer. The price is 320-400 rubles.
4. Akvalor. The price is 250-300 rubles.

8. Dolphin. The price is 300-430 rubles.

These drugs can be used in a newborn with a cold, any pregnant and lactating woman.

Hypertensive saline solutions

Their task - "pulling" out of the swollen mucous nasal "excess" fluid, reduce swelling, and also dilute thick snot and "take away" the contents of the inflamed sinuses of the sinuses. Drugs can cause discomfort when instilled ("burn "bake"), but very effective.

Apply no more than 3 days. Contraindicated for babies up to 3 months, but pregnant and nursing them can use.

1. Humer 050 Hypertonic, costing 580 p.

3. Quix, at the price of 300-400 rubles.
4. Akvalor Extra forte, which costs 260-320 rubles.
5. The physiomer is hypertonic, at about 360 r.

Vasoconstrictive drugs

These drops and sprays are used both for allergic rhinitis and for colds. They narrow the vessels of the nasopharynx, as a result of which the edema disappears and nasal breathing resumes. With an infectious rhinitis, their use is justified: when removing the edema from the nasopharynx, the drum cavity will not be created underpressure, so the inflammatory and full microbial fluid will not diffuse into the structures of the average ear.

Useful decongestants (the so-called vasoconstrictor drugs for the nose) and for prevention, and for the treatment of sinusitis (sinusitis, frontal sinusitis). In this case, they remove the edema from the anastomosis (communication) between the nasal cavity and the sinus, as a result contents of the sinus, does not stagnate, presenting a danger in terms of complications, but comes out in nose.

Decongestants allow a person to breathe easily with the nose, especially during meals, better to hear (even with otitis media), normalize sleep and voice. In doing so, they inhibit the movement of the outgrowths of cells (cilia), which form the mucous membrane of the nose. When applied for more than 5 days, the cilia completely "paralyzes" (this is a temporary effect), so do not use such drops for longer. It is possible to save a little cilia, applying decongestants together with a saline solution (Rhinomaris, Rinotayss).

Decongestants "work" through receptors to adrenaline, located on the cells of the vessels of the nasal mucosa. They give a "command similar to the one that "gives" adrenaline - narrow the vessels. The blood ceases to fill the vessels - for a while the edema subsides, the production of nasal mucus decreases. This feature is also used to stop nasal bleeding.

Adrenaline receptors are not only on the vessels of the nasal cavity - they are found on many cells, including cells of the heart, bronchi, prostate, bladder and pregnant uterus. There are possible side effects associated with this overdose of any drug: increased blood pressure, a significant decrease in heart rate, loss of consciousness, a drop in temperature. Because of the ability to contract the uterus, decongestants are not used in pregnancy.

There is a decongestant feature: if the active substance is constantly circulating in the blood, the receptors cease on to react, and to achieve the effect of the dose will have to increase, which will inevitably lead to the development of undesirable symptoms. Therefore, the vasoconstrictor drops do not apply for longer than 5, in extreme cases, 7 days. If it is necessary to maintain the effect of an ENT, the doctor may prescribe the drug with another basic active substance.

Drops from the common cold and nasal congestion are divided according to their active substance. Some of the foundations of funds are only 3-4 hours, while the actions of others are calculated at 8-10, and even 12 hours.

How to determine which drops are better from the common cold and how to take them?

What drops are better from a cold? This question is asked very many with the onset of cold snaps and the appearance of the first signs of a cold.

Colds and the fight against it

Every year, with the advent of autumn or spring, the human body weakens. And it's natural, because the summer ends, fresh fruit disappears with them, the body lacks vitamins and it gets sick. Along with cold weather, colds, runny nose, cough and other traditional attributes of cold autumn come.
There are no people who are not sick. The human body is very fragile, despite the external strength. And at one point he just stops fighting.

What are the drops?

Nasal drops can be of three types:

• traditional drops - those that sell in pharmacies
• folk remedies: Kalanchoe juices, aloe, all the drops that you can prepare yourself
• Combined drops - cooked at home, using drugs purchased at the pharmacy.

In addition, drops from the common cold differ in the effects that they have on the body.For example, traditional, bought in the pharmacy drops are divided into: vasoconstrictive, moisturizing, antibacterial, antiviral, immunomodulating, anti-inflammatory and antiallergic.

1. Vasoconstrictor drops are necessary at the first stage, when a large amount of clear mucus is released. Used to combat inflammation and narrowing of blood vessels. Effective drops are enough. Pros: Best help. For some time.
   Cons: headache, worsening of sleep, increased blood pressure. Not intended for treatment. More suitable in emergency situations to facilitate breathing. A strict dosage is required. Examples: Naphthysine, Galazoline, Nasone, Tysin, Rhinorus, Nazivin, Ximelin.
2. Humidifying drops - as well as vasoconstrictors - do not carry medicinal properties. Clears the nasal mucosa longer than the previous ones, but harm from them is less, because they consist of relatively natural components, such as sea salt. Pros: It's hard to overdo with the dosage. When using these drops, the runny nose passes by itself. As people say: "If you treat - passes for a week, do not treat - for 7 days."
   Cons: Runny nose as it was, so it is. Faster than a week, will not work. Examples: Aqua Maris.
3. Antibacterial drops - contain antibiotics. Kill microbes at all, but reduce immunity. They are used for sinusitis, sinusitis and allergic rhinitis. Pros: Helps in cases where other drugs are powerless.
   Cons: Like any antibiotics, they kill everything in their path: both viruses and beneficial microorganisms. Examples: Polydex.
   Suitable for children from 3 years old.
4. Antiviral agents - used in ARVI. They are considered safer than all others. Pros: Treat the runny nose. Do not have contraindications. It is shown to people who have a runny nose - a state of mind. If every autumn and spring you have a nose, then this category of drops for you. Suitable for everyone, except people, with hypersensitivity to a certain type of protein. Before using, take tests for allergies to your protein. Cons: They need time to act and clear their noses. Examples: Gripferon, Interferon.
5. Immunomodulating drops are used to strengthen immunity and to give your body the strength to fight microbes against itself. Pros: All people, including newborns, are indicated for use. Can be used as a preventive measure. They are considered one of the safest.
   Cons: The results of their impact are visible only on the fourth day. All the rest of the time before you have to suffer a runny nose. More suitable for the prevention of disease than for treatment. Examples: Derinat, Irs 19
6. Anti-inflammatory drops are an ambiguous category of drops. It is highly discouraged to independently prescribe them and, moreover, choose the first anti-inflammatory drops that are in the pharmacy. Pros: Operate promptly. Like vasoconstrictors. Remove the inflammation of the nasal mucosa.
   Cons: Do not treat the common cold, but only facilitate the course of the disease. After a while, the rhinitis will pass by itself, but can at any time resume again, since human immunity is still weakened and not stimulated by immunomodulating medications.
7. Antiallergic drops. This group will be considered in more detail than the rest, since an increasing number of people annually acquire allergic reactions to various components that make up medicines. Whether the environment is changing, whether this is due to fast and not always the right food, nevertheless the fact remains. According to statistics, every 5 people in Russia suffer from chronic allergies.

So. Antiallergic drops, as is clear even from the name - relieve us of allergies that can manifest as a reaction of the organism to flowering plants, dust in the house, household detergents, and others pathogens. Well relieve the investigation, but do not treat the root cause.

Pros: Affect the symptoms of the disease. After using them for 3-4 days, a runny nose passes.

Cons: Help only with allergies. Not used to improve immunity. If you, at your discretion, without resorting to a consultation with a doctor, bought drops in the nose for treatment allergies, and you have a cold of another type, for example - cold, then you just do not have such drops will help. Examples: Vilozen, Allergodil, Fenistil, Levocabastin, Exxagxal, Zirtek.

Which medications are the most effective?
