Vicks First Defence Micro-Gel Nasal Spray 15ml
Product Overview
Vicks First Defence Micro-Gel Nasal Spray is designed to combat cold germs at the very first signs of infection. Clinically proven to help stop a cold from developing into a full-blown illness, this nasal spray works by trapping, inactivating, and removing cold viruses from the nasal passages. The unique micro-gel formula creates a barrier that protects you from further infection, reducing both the severity and duration of cold symptoms. Vicks First Defence is suitable for adults and children aged 12 and above.
How Vicks First Defence Works
Stopping a Cold in Its Tracks
When a cold virus enters the body, it attaches to cells at the back of the nose, multiplying and triggering an immune response. This results in early symptoms like a tickle in the throat or sneezing. If left unchecked, the virus continues to spread, leading to a full-blown cold. Vicks First Defence is designed to intervene at this early stage, preventing the virus from spreading and reducing the likelihood of severe symptoms.
Micro-Gel Technology: Trap, Inactivate, and Remove
- Trap: The micro-gel formula traps cold viruses at the back of the nose, where they typically begin to multiply.
- Inactivate: By lowering the pH in the nasal cavity, the gel inactivates the viruses, making them less likely to multiply and spread.
- Remove: The spray stimulates the body’s natural defenses, flushing out the inactivated virus either through nasal secretions or by blowing your nose. This helps the body remove the virus before it can cause further infection.
Key Benefits
Early Cold Intervention
Vicks First Defence is most effective when used at the very first signs of a cold, such as a slight tickle in the throat or sneezing. It stops the virus from developing into a full-blown cold and can also be used when you feel at risk of catching a cold.
Reduces Symptoms and Duration
In addition to preventing colds from worsening, Vicks First Defence reduces the severity and duration of symptoms. It helps you recover faster and feel better sooner.
Refreshing Formula
The spray includes a refreshing blend of menthol, camphor, and eucalyptol, providing a soothing sensation while helping to clear your nasal passages.
