Markov drops: instructions for use, composition and reviews

With a common cold, drops are often used to dig in the nose. If the symptom worries an adult person, then a more effective means will be a spray. There are a large number of drops that have a different effect. Relief is given with nasal obstruction vasoconstrictor. More and more popular are Markov drops. Let's see what it is, in this article.

The action of vasoconstrictive drops

Drops are applied to the mucous membrane of the nose, as a result of this effect, the vessels severely narrow. It happens almost instantly. Narrowing of the vessels leads to the removal of puffiness. A person suffering from a runny nose can breathe again with his nose. But unfortunately, the effect of drops sooner or later ends, approximately this happens in 4-6 hours. The nose again pawns, and there is a need for a new dose of the drug.

In addition, vasoconstrictive drops can reduce the amount of mucus that the nose produces. It becomes less viscous, which also contributes to normal full breathing through the nose.

According to the instructions for use, prolonged use of vasoconstrictor is not recommended. The maximum period is 3-4 days. If you use the drops do not stop, you will get addictive. The person will be forced to apply drops constantly, every 4 hours on average. The mucous nose gradually becomes thinner and stops functioning normally.

It is important, if there is an addiction, to force yourself to endure. Use vasoconstrictive drops is strictly prohibited during this period. About a day or two it will be hard, the nose will almost cease to breathe. But then there will come a relief of breathing. The mucous membrane of the nose will recover. At this time, drops of Markov can come to the rescue.
