Is it okay to swallow some nasal spray?

Answer 1

Yes. The things in nasal spray won't make you sick. You could drink a whole bottle of the stuff and be unaffected. Almost all the the "stuff" in nasal spray is water. The other ingredients, depending on which brand and such, are designed for use in the nasal passages and will not harm the lungs if they are inhaled completely. They certainly won't affect your digestive tract.

Answer 2

Swallowing nasal spray is not recommended as it is intended for nasal use only. The active ingredients in nasal sprays are formulated to be absorbed through the mucous membranes in the nasal passages, not the digestive system. Swallowing nasal spray can potentially lead to gastrointestinal irritation or other adverse effects. If accidental ingestion occurs, it is advisable to seek medical advice promptly.

Answer 3

Oh, it's okay, friend! Swallowing a small amount of nasal spray may not cause harm, but it's best to avoid doing so. Remember, nasal spray is meant to be sprayed into your nose, not swallowed. If you accidentally swallow some, just drink a glass of water and try not to worry. Just be more careful next time, happy little accidents happen!

Answer 4

Well, honey, technically nasal spray is meant to be sprayed up your nose, not swallowed like a shot of tequila. It's designed to work locally in your nasal passages, not in your stomach. So, if you accidentally swallow a tiny bit, you'll probably be fine, but chugging the whole bottle is a different story. Just stick to using it as directed and save the swallowing for something more enjoyable.

Answer 5

Oh, dude, swallowing a little nasal spray won't kill you or anything. It might give you a bit of a weird taste in your mouth, but it's not the end of the world. Just try not to make a habit out of it, okay? Like, save the nasal spray for your nose, not your stomach.

Answer 7

Nasal spray was never intended to be swallowed. You might consider contacting your local poison control agency asap if this is so.

All outdated (expired) medication, whether it was issued by a prescription or bought over the counter, should be discarded soon after the expiration date.

Answer 8

Call the poison control center instead of asking for advice from random people on the internet.

There are lots of different "nasal sprays" with varying effects, and the poison control center people know what's in each of them and what you need to do (which may vary from "nothing, you just drank salt water" to "get to an emergency room immediately").
