Vicks First Defence spray contains a microgel formula that works by trapping, inactivating and helping to remove cold viruses from the nose. When you spray Vicks first defence into your nose, the microgel coats the nasal lining and acts as a filter.
It traps the viruses that cause colds, stopping them from coming into contact with the lining of your nose and infecting cells there. When you blow your nose, you will blow out the viruses trapped in the microgel.
The microgel also reduces the pH inside the nose, which inactivates cold viruses and makes it harder for them to multiply. Using the spray when you first feel a cold coming on, or if you've been in contact with someone who has a cold, will reduce the likelihood of you developing a full-blown cold. You can also use it if you feel you're at risk of catching a cold, for instance if you have been in close contact with someone else who has one. To do this, remove the protective cap from the nozzle, hold the bottle upright and press the pump down firmly several times spray into a tissue.
The spray should also be primed in this way if you have not used it for more than a week. Hospital Outpatient Pharmacies. Corporate Giftcards. IPL female hair removal. Varifocal Lenses explained.

Unlike medicines that help relieve bothersome cold symptoms, First defence nasal spray works at the first signs of a cold by targeting the viruses to help stop the cold in its tracks before the symptoms get worse.
How does it work? When used at the first signs of a cold , First Defence nasal spray acts at the back of the nose directly where the cold virus takes hold and starts to develop that's why it's a nasal spray. It traps, inactivates and helps your body naturally remove the cold virus, before it develops into a full blown cold.
