Xylometazoline hydrochloride 0.1 per cent versus physiological saline in nasal surgical aftercare: a randomised, single-blinded, comparative clinical trial

Abstract

There is no evidence to support the use of xylometazoline hydrochloride 0.1 per cent nasal spray over aerosolised physiological saline alone, following nasal surgery. Furthermore, there may be more pain associated with the post-operative use of xylometazoline.
