Otriras Nasal Spray

Xylometazoline Hydrochloride Nasal Spray- Otriras Nasal Spray is a medication that provides short-term relief for nasal congestion. It contains the active ingredient Xylometazoline Hydrochloride, which is effective in treating congestion caused by allergies, hay fever, sinus irritation, and the common cold.
