When applied locally, xylometazoline causes a narrowing of the arterioles, leads to a decrease in hyperemia and swelling of the mucous membranes of the nasopharynx and a decrease in secretion. A distinct local effect of the drug is detected after a few minutes and lasts for several hours (up to 6-8 hours), manifesting in the restoration of patency of the nasal passages, sinus openings and Eustachian tubes. Restoring the airway of the nasopharynx improves the patient ™s well-being and reduces the risk of possible complications caused by stagnation of the mucous secretion.
