Most parents treat a runny nose lightly, not considering it as a disease, but as long as the baby does not go to kindergarten or school. From this period, the usual transparent light runny nose turns into an unimaginable mixture of white bubbly, yellow-cloudy and green mucous lingering secretions. It is at this stage that the pediatrician prescribes protorgolic drops. The instructions for children and adults are simple, but we'll talk about this a little later. A runny nose performs a protective function, indicating that microbes appear in the body and it begins to fight them. But this does not mean that you need to immediately instill vasoconstrictive drops into your nose. It is best to rinse the nose with a sea solution, and only then resort to protorgol.
Not all parents are familiar with proto-nasal drops, as they are made in prescription departments and are sold only by prescription. This is a small bottle, like from under the greenery, with a rubber round cork and chocolate liquid. The dark brown liquid has no smell, in comparison with other drops in the nose has a slightly bitter taste. Instill it with a pipette 1-2 drops in each passage, after which a brownish color remains in the nose. The composition of the drops includes silver, which has a lot of positive properties to fight microbes, but not viruses, strengthens the immune system. Doctors do not prescribe protorgol to everyone, since silver accumulates in the body with frequent treatment and causes allergic reactions to it or the disease argyrosis (in very rare medical cases, silver causes blue skin).

Depending on the age, a 1-5% solution of drops is made with a shelf life of 30 days. The medicine is stored in the refrigerator, while the bottle should be in a box so that the light does not fall on the protorgol. These drops should not fall into children's hands. And one more point on the period of application. In Russia, adults try to use many children's medicines after the expiration date for themselves in order to save money. We draw your attention to the fact that protorgol should be discarded immediately 30 days after their manufacture. Its composition changes over time and can harm not only the mucous membrane, but also the entire body.
Many parents treat themselves with protorgol for a runny nose, noticing an improvement in the condition: relief of breathing, rapid course of a runny nose and even its disappearance on the second day after application at the initial stage of a cold. To do this, they drip 2 drops in each passage for 10-14 days twice a day. Regardless of how you found out about protorgol drops for children (reviews from parents, girlfriends, neighbors, friends), only a doctor prescribes treatment with protorgol! You can check with the pediatrician for information about these drops and find out if your child can use them, but not self-medicate. As standard, they are prescribed in 2 cases: 1) snot flows like a stream; 2) a lingering runny nose. In the first case, protorgol helps to dry the nose, and in the second case it is used as an analgesic for the mucous membrane. Despite the fact that some pediatricians prescribe these drops to newborns (babies under 3 years old are not recommended to drip them for more than 3 days, children from 3 years old – no more than 5 days), however, drugs containing silver are forbidden to give to children under 5 years old, pregnant and nursing mothers.
Usually, the pediatrician prescribes a standard treatment regimen for rhinitis in children:
But all people are individual in how the runny nose proceeds and what the body's reaction to medications is. Therefore, only the attending physician prescribes protorgol drops (instructions for children and adults are not always attached to the bottle, so remember the recommendations of the pediatrician and therapist). Do not self-medicate and be healthy!
