A blocked nose due to a cold or sinusitis can make breathing difficult and significantly disrupt your sleep or focus during the day. When free breathing is no longer a matter of course, you often feel less vital and energetic. Vicks Sinex Aloe offers an effective solution by shrinking the swollen nasal mucosa, supplemented with the soothing properties of aloe vera for a comfortable feeling.
- Clears the nose quickly during colds and sinusitis due to the active ingredient oxymetazoline.
- Supports long-lasting relief from a blocked nose, for up to several hours per dose.
- Contains aloe vera extract for a mild experience during spraying.
- Easy to dose thanks to the handy pump system that provides a fine mist.
How it works
Vicks Sinex Aloe is carefully formulated to reduce pressure in the nasal cavities. The active ingredient oxymetazoline causes the blood vessels in the nasal mucosa to constrict, which reduces swelling and allows you to breathe more freely through your nose again. As part of your daily routine during a cold, this product helps you get through the day with more ease.
