About Nirvin
Nirvin is a xylometazoline hydrochloride decongestant sold at 0.5 and 1.0 mg per millilitre. The company says it reduces swelling and congestion within minutes of application and keeps working for up to ten hours, and that the lower strength also serves as a conjunctival decongestant for the eye. Dosing is left to the label rather than fixed, because it differs between patients.
