Rhinozol Nasal Drop 0.10% contains Xylometazoline Hydrochloride, a powerful topical nasal decongestant designed to provide fast and effective relief from nasal congestion. This higher-strength formulation is intended for adults and provides rapid relief of blocked nasal passages caused by colds, sinusitis, allergic rhinitis, and other upper respiratory conditions. By reducing swelling in the nasal mucosa, Rhinozol improves airflow, eases breathing, and enhances comfort during episodes of congestion.

Xylometazoline Hydrochloride works by selectively stimulating alpha-adrenergic receptors in the blood vessels of the nasal mucosa. This causes vasoconstriction, leading to decreased blood flow to the swollen nasal tissues, reduced congestion, and opening of nasal airways. The effect is localized, fast-acting, and provides symptomatic relief within minutes.
