Calpol Blocked Nose Spray - 15ml

Calpol Blocked Nose Spray 15ml is a medicated nasal spray formulated to provide fast and effective relief from nasal congestion in babies and young children from 3 months of age.

It contains a gentle decongestant that works by reducing swelling in the nasal lining, helping to open the airways and restore easier breathing. This makes it particularly useful when congestion is caused by:

• Colds
• Hay fever and other allergic rhinitis
• Sinus congestion

The spray delivers a fine, gentle mist, making it suitable for young children and helping to support easier breathing, feeding and sleeping during periods of nasal blockage.
