How Carboxy Methyl Cellulose + Naphazoline + Phenylephrine works

  • Naphazoline and Phenylephrine are sympathomimetic amines. They function as decongestants by narrowing the blood vessels in the eyes, which reduces redness and swelling.

  • Carboxy Methyl Cellulose acts as a lubricant. It forms a protective layer on the eye surface, shielding it from further irritation and providing relief from dryness and discomfort.
