How to use Bionozia J 0.05% Nasal Drops in my child?

Before using Bionozia J 0.05% Nasal Drops, instruct your child to clear the nose by gently blowing. Have your child lie down with their head slightly tilted back and look up. Tilt your child’s head as far back as comfortable or if on a bed, keep the head over the side. Open the cap of the medicine container and without touching the nozzle to the nose, apply the drops into each nostril. Ask your child to keep the head tilted back for a short time to allow the drops to spread throughout their nose. Replace the cap right after use. If the drop completely misses the nose, administer the drop again. If any part of the drop gets into the nose, do not administer the drop again. Repeat for the other nostril. Clean and dry the nozzle before replacing the cap right after use. To avoid potential infection spread, only use the bottle by one person.
