The first place among the unpleasant diseases that occur with us in the autumn-spring period is occupied by a runny nose. What do we do first of all to overcome this ailment? We go to the pharmacy and buy various vasoconstrictor drugs, which, having high efficiency, contain a number of contraindications and side effects, and, facilitating breathing for several hours, can cause significant harm to the body as a whole.
For those who care, first of all, about the safety of treatment, there is the drug "Quicks". Its analogs can be found in the pharmacy under the names “Aqua Maris Strong” or “Marimer”.
A unique drug based on ocean water. Its healing properties have been known to people since ancient times. The water of the Atlantic Ocean is a storehouse of useful minerals and trace elements. Thanks to copper, manganese, gold, silver, which are contained in a high concentration in the preparation, it has unique properties that are manifested by antimicrobial, immunomodulating and anti-allergic effects. To achieve easier breathing by eliminating the swelling of the nasal mucosa and paranasal passages and thinning the mucus will help the drug “Quicks”, the composition of which in addition to ocean water includes a quarter of the purified fresh water. It is this ratio that allows the drug to effectively remove swelling of the nasal mucosa, while not overdrying it. Quix spray is very often used during pregnancy, as one of the safest drugs. But everyone knows that pregnant women are more likely than others to run a runny nose and nasal congestion.
Indications for use of the drug can be rhinitis, including allergic rhinosinusitis. "Quicks" during pregnancy is used as a prophylaxis of colds, especially during exacerbation of viral infections. In addition, the drug is recommended for the treatment of the common cold in children from the age of three months. It is sprayed to children in each nostril, making one or two clicks on the cuff of the tip. The number of applications can reach three times a day, but an eight-hour interval between the use of the drug should be observed. "Quicks" during pregnancy and adulthood is sprayed with the same frequency, but up to three clicks on the cuff of the tip. Due to the fact that “Quicks” is released in the form of a spray, and the tip of the bottle helps to finely disperse the drug, it very well covers the mucous membrane of the nasal passages, effectively eliminating nasal congestion. A slight tingling sensation may be felt immediately after use, but this is considered a normal reaction. In general, the drug has no restrictions, contraindications for use, and no adverse reactions have been identified. That is why Quicks during pregnancy and breastfeeding is an almost indispensable tool that everyone should have in a medicine cabinet.
To use the sprayer correctly, remove the outer cap from the bottle and press the tip cuff several times, idle, only then place its tip in the nasal passage and irrigate. Remember that after use, wipe the tip with a clean cloth and be sure to close it with a cap. The drug can be used for a long time, without fear of drying out the nasal mucosa. “Quicks” is not addictive and is an environmentally friendly drug, the effectiveness of which has been tested by time and proven in practice. In addition, “Quicks” can be used as an additional treatment when using vasoconstrictive nasal drops and sprays to reduce the frequency of use of the latter. Despite the fact that the drug was launched on the market relatively recently, it has already managed to gain popularity.
