How Benzalkonium Chloride + Camphor + Menthol + Naphazoline Hydrochloride + Phenylephrine Hydrochloride works

  • Benzalkonium Chloride + Camphor + Menthol + Naphazoline Hydrochloride + Phenylephrine Hydrochloride belongs to the category of nasal decongestants and soothing agents.

  • Benzalkonium Chloride acts as an antimicrobial preservative, preventing bacterial contamination in the product. This ingredient has antiseptic properties.

  • Camphor provides a cooling sensation and acts as a mild local anaesthetic, helping to alleviate discomfort. It can also have some antimicrobial effects.

  • Menthol has a soothing effect on the mucous membranes of the eyes and nose. It helps reduce irritation by providing a cooling sensation.

  • Naphazoline Hydrochloride, an alpha-adrenergic agonist, serves as a decongestant by constricting blood vessels. This action helps to alleviate redness and swelling in the eyes and nasal passages.
