What are Care Decongestant Tablets?
Care Decongestant Tablets are a decongestant treatment that can help to clear your blocked nose. If your nose is blocked because of a cold, flu, or hay fever, these tablets could help to clear your airways so you can breathe more easily. These tablets are non-drowsy and sugar free, and are perfect for those who want to continue with their day with minimal disruption from the symtpoms of cold and flu.
What is the cause of a blocked nose?
There are many reasons why your nose may be blocked, it’s usually nothing to worry about and will go away on its own. When you have a blocked nose, the blood vessels in your nose are swollen, keeping you from breathing freely. Some of the most common causes of a blocked nose include:
- Allergies
- Catarrh
- Cold
- Flu
- Hay Fever
- Sinusitis
How will Care decongestant tablets treat my blocked nose?
Care decongestant tablets contain an active ingredient called pseudoephedrine hydrochloride. It works by reducing swelling in your nasal passages and reducing the amount of mucus you produce. This gives you more room to breathe easily, easing your congestion.
