Additionnal Information

Naphazoline (nitrate) is a agonist of peripheral α2-adrenergic receptor and used as a topical decongestant. It also acts as a vasoconstrictor that effectively reduces intraoperative bleeding and enhances postoperative analgesia. When used in conjunction with intranasal lidocaine, it significantly reduces both intra- and postoperative pain, thereby decreasing the need for rescue analgesics in the postoperative period following septorhinoplasty.
