How Tymazoline works
Thymazen causes vasoconstriction of the nasal mucosa, reducing congestion and thus the swelling of the mucosa. Also reduces the secretions from the nose. Thymazen acts on alpha-adrenergic receptors, which reduces local inflammation of the nasal mucosa especially if their cause is an allergy.
Toxicity
A large overdose or accidental oral intake, especially in children, may cause excessive sedation with drowsiness, reduced body temperature, heart rate relief and fluctuations in blood pressure and collapse.
