Paladin Pharma Hypertonic Solution 3%
Hypertonic solution, 30 ampoules of 5 ml
This hypertonic solution from Paladin Pharma is designed for nebulization and comes in a pack of 30 ampoules of 5 ml each, free from preservatives. It works through various mechanisms that facilitate the movement of secretions from the respiratory tract, improving breathing. It is particularly suitable as a decongestant for colds, nasal congestion, sinusitis, rhinitis, crusting, and post-nasal surgery.
Benefits:
- Dilutes thick mucus during colds, excessive secretions, or allergic rhinosinusitis
- Helps eliminate excess mucus
- Softens the driest crusts, making them easier to remove
- Contributes to reducing the duration of viral infections and their associated symptoms
- Helps improve mucociliary clearance
- Reduces the local concentration of pro-inflammatory mediators
When nasal passages are blocked by mucus or allergens, it can lead to difficulty breathing and headaches. Nebulization with hypertonic solution helps remove these irritants, allowing for easier breathing and relief from sinus pressure. Additionally, it may help reduce the frequency and severity of sinus infections by clearing bacteria and viruses from the nasal passages.
Providing extra chloride to the mucosal cells helps them produce more hypochlorous acid, which aids in suppressing viral replication, thereby reducing the duration of viral infections and associated symptoms.
The 3% hypertonic solution is most effective due to its decongestant action and ability to reduce viral load during colds and sinusitis.
It supports the movement of ciliary cells, promoting the expulsion of mucus. The advantages of the hypertonic solution are beneficial in cases of nasal congestion with excess infected mucus, characterized by the typical intense yellow color that turns green. Thanks to its natural ability to dissolve mucus, the hypertonic solution promotes its elimination while helping to reduce viral or bacterial load.
Clinical trials conclude that hypertonic saline is more effective in alleviating nasal congestion symptoms compared to placebo or isotonic saline. Nasal irrigation with 2.3% hypertonic saline with sea salt, delivered via inhalation device, proves to be well-tolerated and effective in patients with sinonasal symptoms in real clinical conditions.
Furthermore, a study indicates that using hypertonic saline may reduce the duration of the common cold in children by two days.
The research team included 407 children aged up to six years, who received hypertonic saline ~2.6% (saline water).
Children using the hypertonic solution had cold symptoms for an average of six days, while those receiving usual care had symptoms for eight days.
