To use the nasal spray:

  • Shake the bottle gently and then remove the dust cover.
  • It is necessary to prime the pump into the air the first time it is used, or when you have not used it for a week or more. To prime the pump, hold the bottle with the nasal applicator pointing away from you and with your forefinger and middle finger on either side of the nasal applicator and your thumb underneath the bottle. Press down and release the pump three to four times until a fine spray appears. The pump is now ready to use.

  • Blow your nose to clear your nostrils.

  • Close one nostril. Tilt your head forward slightly and, keeping the bottle upright, carefully insert the nasal applicator into the other nostril.

  • Start to breathe in through your nose, and while breathing in press firmly down once on the applicator to release the spray. Use your forefinger and middle finger to spray while supporting the base of the bottle with your thumb. Breathe gently inwards through the nostril. Breathe out through your mouth.

  • If a second spray is required in that nostril, repeat the above steps.

  • Repeat the above steps in the other nostril.

  • Wipe the nasal applicator with a clean tissue and replace the dust cover.
