  • How to use

    Otrivin Adult Nasal Spray gets to work in 5 minutes and lasts for up to 10 hours. The maximum daily dose to be sprayed is 1 spray into each nostril up to 3 times daily. Do not use more often than every 8-10 hours. Do not use for more than three days at a time unless advised by a doctor or pharmacist. If congestion persists, seek medical advice.

    1. Do not cut the nozzle. The metered dose spray is ready to prime before use.
    2. Clear your nose.
    3. Remove protective cap.
    4. Before using for the first time, prime the pump by actuating 4 times. If the product has not been used for longer than 7 days, the pump will need to be reprimed with 4 actuations. If the full spray is not administered, the dose should not be repeated. Be careful not to spray in the eyes or mouth.
    5. Hold bottle upright with thumb under base and nozzle between two fingers.
    6. Lean forward slightly and insert the nozzle into the nostril.
    7. Spray and breathe in gently through the nose at the same time.
    8. Repeat with the other nostril.
    9. Clean and dry the nozzle before replacing back the cap right after use.
    10. To avoid possible spread of infection, the spray should only be used by one person.
