Particular caution is required when using this medicine in newborns and young infants.There are isolated reports of serious side effects (particularly respiratory failure) when using the recommended dose in this age group.Exceeding the dose must be avoided at all costs.

The long-term use of nasal drops that decongest the mucous membranes can lead to chronic swelling and ultimately loss of the nasal mucosa.
