The subject matter of the investigation is to compare the metered dose nasal sprays containing the long-acting decongestant oxymetazoline from the different manufacturers according to the dispersion quality: the dose quantity in one packing, the dose mass reproducibility, imprint area on the planar imitation model. The tests were conducted: «The number of doses per package», «Mass uniformity of the dose», «Irrigated area (on the planar imitation model)». The analysis of nine oxymetazoline nasal sprays demonstrates that the optimal result is achieved while usingVicks Sinex.
