Expressed antimicrobial action

Silver ions actively bind to bacterial DNA, inhibiting their reproduction and suppressing transmembrane transport inside microbial cells.

Targeted edema reduction

Promotes a smooth narrowing of blood vessels in the nasal cavity, which leads to a noticeable reduction in mucosal swelling.

Protective film barrier

Precipitates proteins to form a dense protective barrier on vulnerable mucosa, effectively decreasing the sensitivity of nerve endings.

Proven astringent effect

Active protein binding provides an astringent effect necessary for effective treatment in the second phase of inflammation.
