Zinaida. I've been drinking these pills many times and always remain satisfied with the result. With them the nasal congestion quickly passes and moreover I at all do not use vasoconstrictive drops. I buy sinupret and drink only them. A daughter gave a drop of sinupret, also with zalozhennosti in the nose, again the result was excellent - a few days later the baby breathed through the nose, and not through the mouth.
Tatyana. Sinupret was prescribed to the child for cold and swelling of the mucous spout. At first I was alerted by the alcohol base of the pre-drug, But when I was bred in a liquid, alcohol was not felt at all, but I was pleased with the quick relief. A great advantage of sinupret, in comparison with vasoconstrictors, is that it is not addictive, and is well tolerated by the child. Excellent tool, always use for colds.
Kolya. With the advanced stage of sinusitis, only the Sinupret saved me. Other drugs did not help at all. Though to whom as - responses at all different. Organisms are different, drugs can come across forged, the causes of the disease are different - therefore, each has its own.
