MEDICAL DEVICE CLASS IIa

Product with MDR CERTIFICATION. If you want to know more information for this, click in here. 

Indication:

Medical Device Class IIa based on hypertonic sea water. It provides intense hydration for nasal cavities thanks to its mechanical cleaning and extraction effect. This maintains the nasal mucosa’s permeability.

This spray is a health product that can be used by adults and children experiencing nasopharynx infections, runny nose, paranasal sinus infections or snoring caused by dry membranes. The hypertonic nasal spray eliminates excess water from inside the nasal mucosa, the membrane cells, based on the osmotic effect of the hypertonic solution. In addition to the mechanical cleaning and decongestant action on upper airways, this osmotic effect helps reduce swelling of the mucosa. Including this hypertonic sea water in daily nasal hygiene provides therapeutic support for certain basic symptoms such as nasopharyngitis, obstructive rhinitis and sinusitis, dry nose, snoring caused by dry mucosa, and as an aid to ENT and pediatric treatments.

STE Pharmaceuticals’s sea water comes from the Bay of Cancale in Brittany, which is renowned for its quality. The sampling area is classified as Class A.
