Effectiveness

How Naphazoline Hydrochloride Affects PatientsNaphazoline is a drug that helps to reduce congestion in the nose or eyes by narrowing the small blood vessels at the site of administration.
How Naphazoline Hydrochloride works in the bodyNaphazoline is a medication used to decrease congestion. It works by stimulating alpha-adrenergic receptors on the walls of small arteries, causing them to constrict and reduce inflammation. It also stimulates beta-adrenergic receptors, which can cause rebound vasodilation once the alpha-adrenergic stimulation has ended. After long-term use, if naphazoline is suddenly stopped, it can cause rhinitis medicamentosa due to a decrease in norepinephrine production caused by a negative feedback loop.

When to interrupt dosage

The measure of Naphazoline Hydrochloride is contingent upon the perceived affliction, including Eye Pain, Sinusitis and tetracycline. The measure of dosage is affected by the mode of delivery (e.g. Solution / drops or Liquid - Ophthalmic) specified in the table beneath.

Naphazoline Hydrochloride Reviews: What are patients saying about Naphazoline Hydrochloride?

Naphazoline Hydrochloride for Red Eyes
The active ingredient in Clear Eyes, naphazoline ophthalmic, is much more effective than other over-the-counter treatments like Visine. I've used it for a variety of issues – pink eye, sore eyes from staring at a computer all day, allergies, and even just puffy eyes – and it's always worked great.

Naphazoline Hydrochloride for Red Eyes
My right eye was red and irritated for seven weeks before I found this treatment. The over-the-counter allergy drop really did the trick, better than the prescription medications my doctor gave me (which also came with some nasty possible side effects).
