Buy Vicks First Defence Nasal Spray

Vicks First Defence Nasal Spray helps to stop a cold before symptoms develop. Most cold & flu medicines help to relieve symptoms caused by the virus, but doesn’t deal with the source of the problem – the virus. Vicks First Defence helps to neutralise the virus to prevent it from developing and causing symptoms.

How does Vicks First Defence work?

Vicks First Defence is applied directly in the nose, where the viruses develop. Its microgel traps and neutralises the viruses responsible for cold and flu, which helps to prevent them from developing and spreading. It naturally helps your body to remove the neutralised viruses by blowing your nose or swallowing. Vicks First Defence has been shown to help stop a cold within the first 36 hours after application and can prevent it from developing into a full-blown cold.

Directions

Start using Vicks Nasal Spray to treat your cold within the first 36 hours of its onset. This can be identified by symptoms such as a scratchy throat, irritation or tickles in the nose or sneezing. You can even use it when you think you’re at risk of catching a cold.

• Incline the nozzle and apply 2–3 sprays per nostril without inhaling
• Wipe the nozzle clean after use and replace the protective cap
• Repeat up to 4 times per day and, for best results, continue to use for 2 days after the symptoms subside

Before first use, remove the protective cap from the nozzle. Hold the bottle upright and prime the pump into a tissue by depressing it firmly several times.

Side effects

You may experience nasal discharge (runny nose) or a temporary stinging sensation, which are normal signs that the product is working. Like other nasal sprays, Vicks First Defence can irritate the lining of the nose, which can result in nosebleeding.
