Aqualor soft is a preparation for hygienic care, prevention and treatment of diseases of the nasal cavity and nasopharynx.
Release form and composition
Aqualor soft is available in the form of a nasal spray: a transparent liquid without color (125 ml each in a metal bottle with an antiseptic coating inside, the liquid is under pressure, 1 bottle in a cardboard box).
The contents of the bottle: natural sterile seawater with an isotonic salt concentration of 9 g per 1 liter and preserved substances and trace elements such as Na, K, Fe, Mg, Ca, Se, Cl, Zn, Cu, etc.
Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
The mechanism of action of Aqualora soft is based on the healing properties of sea water, rich in active substances and trace elements. By stimulating the protective function of the ciliated epithelium, it maintains the normal physiological state of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and nasopharynx.
Thanks to spraying (shower), all parts of the nasal cavity and nasopharynx are thoroughly washed, actively cleansing not only of mucus, crusts and impurities, but also of allergens, bacteria and viruses. This increases the local immunity and resistance to pathogenic bacteria and viruses.
In addition, Aqualor software:
- relieves irritation, reduces puffiness;
- facilitates nasal breathing, providing a moisturizing and anti-inflammatory effect;
- helps to accelerate the healing and restoration of the mucous membrane after surgical interventions in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses;
- reduces the likelihood of developing various complications.
The use of the drug as part of a complex therapy can increase the bioavailability and therapeutic effect of vasoconstrictor, antibacterial, antiallergic and other drugs intended for application to the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and nasopharynx. This reduces the need for their more frequent use, possible side effects, and the period of treatment.
Prophylactic use of the spray by smokers, vehicle drivers, persons in rooms with central heating or operating air conditioning, in unfavorable environmental or special climatic conditions can relieve irritation of the nasal and nasopharyngeal mucosa.
Indications for use
According to the instructions, Aqualora soft is indicated for irrigation and rinsing of the nasal cavity, including those with a particularly sensitive and injured mucous membrane:
- prevention and complex treatment of acute and chronic inflammatory diseases of the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses and nasopharynx of infectious, allergic or atrophic genesis: rhinitis, subatrophic rhinitis (dryness of the mucous membrane), adenoids, sinusitis (including sinusitis), allergic and vasomotor rhinitis;
- prevention of acute respiratory viral infections and influenza during the epidemiological period;
- preparation of the nasal mucosa for the use of other medicines;
- daily hygiene of the nasal cavity in adverse environmental conditions.
Contraindications
The use of Aqualor soft is contraindicated for treatment and prophylaxis in children under the age of 0.5 years.
Instructions for the use of Aqualor soft: method and dosage
The spray is intended for intranasal use.
To rinse the nose in children under the age of two, the child must be put on one side, insert the tip of the balloon into the nasal passage and, pressing the spray bottle, rinse the nasal cavity for several seconds. Having planted the baby, the nasal passage should be cleaned, including by blowing it out on its own. If one wash is insufficient, the procedure can be repeated. Then put the child on the other side and carry out a similar procedure with the second nasal passage.

After thorough irrigation, blow your nose well. Rinsing should be continued until free breathing through the nose appears.
