About Iomet-P Nasal Spray/Drops 10 ml

Iomet-P Nasal Spray/Drops 10 ml is used to treat nasal congestion (stuffy nose) caused by hay fever (allergic rhinitis), common colds, flu, sinusitis, or other allergic conditions. Nasal congestion, also known as a stuffy nose, occurs when nasal passages become swollen with excess mucus and fluid.

Some people may experience irritation/dryness of the nasal mucosa, local burning sensation, headache, and nausea. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and resolve on their own over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
