Nasosal for Children Sterile Nasal Drops

These are sterile saline solution to help clear a babies blocked nose when they have the snuffles. I got these when they were on special offer and I think I paid about £2. Recently we have had cause to use them with our 6 month old daughter who has had her first full blown case of the sniffles. I like the idea of these as I have heard the nasal aspirators (the ones that suck the snot out) can damage the delicate membrane in the nose. They come in a little bottle with a built in dropper on the end, which is a great little device as you barely need to squueze the bottle to get a drop out.

He has been suffering with the worst blocked nose you can imagine and if you think a baby uses their nasal passages to breath naturally.. So you can imagine when they get a cold and their nose becomes blocked it must be the same as taking one of their senses away from them.. I know on the market there are different products that ease blocked stuffy noses but if like ...  Read the complete review

I found this an essential product for a newborn with a blocked nose. It is a gentle formula which can be used from birth so OK for even a very young child. It comes as a small bottle with a fine nozzle from which you can squeeze out 1 or 2 drops at a time. The idea is to squeeze the drops into the babies nose. It can be a bit tricky to get the liquid into the nose though if the baby is moving so often you need to use quite a few drops with several going over babiy's face before you hit the target. Once it does go up the nose though it does work well as it dilutes any blockage so that they can then be wiped away. A sneeze from baby after the drops go in is ...  Read the complete review
