Otolaryngologist Olga Malchenko said that nose drops have their advantages and disadvantages. The latter include the possibility of heart problems.
Nose drops belong to the category of vasoconstrictor drugs, but they need to be used for a very short time. If you use these drops for more than a week, then you may become addicted, as Olga Malchenko told Ura.ru.

If there is a strong dependence on the drops, the risk of stroke increases.
