How Does Otrivine Natural Nasal Spray Work?
Otrivine Nasal Spray uses a hypertonic sea salt solution to naturally draw out excess fluid from swollen nasal membranes.
This osmotic action helps shrink nasal tissue, allowing air to flow freely and providing fast relief from congestion.
The added eucalyptus and mint oils offer a soothing, cooling sensation while supporting easier breathing and cleansing the nasal passages of bacteria and viruses.
