Nasodren 50mg/5ml Nasal Spray

Nasodren 50mg/5ml Nasal Spray contains Extract of Cyclamen europaeum tuber (main active ingredient) and Purified water and is presented as a nasal spray.

It is classified as an over-the-counter (OTC) medicine, so no prescription is needed to order it. Under Malaysian rules for medicine information, this page carries product, safety and handling information only.

You can consult a doctor or pharmacist online on DoctorOnCall about this product before or after you order. Every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is delivered. Always read the label and the leaflet supplied with the pack.

Before first use, prime the pump as instructed on the packaging. With the head upright (not tilted back or lying down), insert the nozzle into one nostril and spray once, then repeat in the other nostril. Remain upright for a short period afterwards rather than lying down immediately, to allow the expected increase in nasal and sinus secretion to drain naturally. Blow your nose gently as needed afterwards. Clean the nozzle tip after use according to the package instructions.

The typical adult dose is one spray into each nostril, generally once daily, as directed on the product packaging or by a doctor or pharmacist. Do not increase the frequency or number of sprays beyond what is directed, as the reflex secretory effect is intended to be used in a controlled, short course rather than repeated multiple times a day.

Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture, and keep the bottle upright with the cap closed between uses, following the specific storage conditions printed on the packaging. Keep out of reach of children.

• Common: Temporary stinging or burning sensation in the nose after spraying.
• Common: Sneezing and watery eyes shortly after use.
• Common: A marked, temporary increase in nasal and sinus discharge, which is an expected part of how the product works.
• Serious: Frequent, heavy, or prolonged nosebleeds, significant facial or ear pain, or signs of an allergic reaction such as swelling or difficulty breathing, which require prompt medical attention.

• Do not use if you have a known hypersensitivity to Cyclamen europaeum, other plants in the Primulaceae family, or any other ingredient in the product.
• Do not use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding unless specifically advised by a doctor or pharmacist.
• Do not use in children unless specifically advised by a doctor or pharmacist, as this product’s use in paediatric patients should be guided by professional advice rather than self-directed use.

• Avoid using other nasal decongestants, medicated nasal sprays, or nasal corticosteroids at the same time without checking with a doctor or pharmacist, as combined use on the nasal mucosa may increase irritation or affect how each product works.
• Inform your doctor or pharmacist of any other sinus or allergy medicines you are taking before starting Nasodren.
• No specific food interactions are documented for this product.

• Use Nasodren while standing or sitting upright, not lying down, so secretions can drain naturally.
• Expect a short burst of sneezing, watery eyes, and increased nasal discharge after each dose — this is generally expected, not a sign of a problem.
• Do not exceed the dose or duration stated on the packaging or by your pharmacist.
• Keep tissues on hand after each use to manage the temporary increase in discharge.
• Do not share your Nasodren bottle with other people.
• See a doctor if you feel you need to use Nasodren for longer than the recommended course, rather than continuing to self-treat indefinitely.

Precautions: Nasodren contains an active botanical extract that produces a reflex secretory effect, so it should be used strictly as directed rather than as a routine daily nasal hygiene product. It is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for children, without professional advice, and should be used cautiously by anyone with a history of nasal or sinus surgery, nosebleeds, or known sensitivity to plants in the Primulaceae family.

When to See a Doctor or Pharmacist: Speak with a doctor or pharmacist before starting Nasodren if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, considering use in a child, or taking other nasal or sinus medicines, and seek prompt medical attention if you develop heavy or prolonged nosebleeds, severe facial pain, high fever, or any signs of an allergic reaction. Also see a doctor if you feel you need to use Nasodren for longer than the recommended course.
