Otrivine Menthol is intended for adults and children aged 12 and over.

Otrivine Menthol solution for nasal instillation and solution for nasal spray, for adults and children aged 12 and over:
Nasal spray: 1 spray in each nostril, 3 times a day. An interval of 8 to 10 hours should be observed between 2 administrations. No more than 3 sprays per nostril per day.

Use of the nasal spray solution:
The spray pump ensures good distribution over the surface of the mucosa. The dosing mechanism ensures precise dosing and eliminates the possibility of unintentional overdosing.
Take care not to spray into the eyes.
