Pharmacological properties.

Effectively moisturizes the nasal mucosa, thins thick mucus, softens dry nasal crusts, and facilitates their easy removal.

Highly purified stabilized 0.65% sodium chloride solution closely matches natural nasal secretion. Buffering agents contained in Aquamax bring the solution's pH close to the pH of natural secretory fluid of the nasal mucosa and maintain this parameter at a constant level.

Aquamax improves olfactory perception and ciliary epithelium transport function, promotes restoration of nasal breathing, shortens the rehabilitation period, and allows reducing the dose and frequency of use of locally acting vasoconstrictive agents.
