Nasivion Classic is a brand name of oxymetazoline and it is available in the form of nasal drops and nasal spray. It belongs to the class of drug known as an alpha-adrenergic agonist (sympathomimetic agent). It is an over the counter (OTC) drug that is used to provide relief from nasal congestion associated with common cold, hay fever, sinusitis, and allergic rhinitis.

Put 1 - 2 drops or 1 spray of Nasivion Classic in each nostril 2 times a day or as advised by your doctor. Precautions must be taken in patients with hypertension (high blood pressure), diabetes mellitus, and hepatic or renal disorder.

Nasivion Classic contains oxymetazoline which is a nasal decongestant that works by causing constriction (shrinking) of blood vessels which are present in our nose. This results in the decrease of swelling and congestion in the nose which opens the nasal passages and relieves from nasal stuffiness that allows easy nasal breathing.
