Olbas Inhaler Twin Pack

If you are pregnant, you should speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using Olbas Inhaler. The product contains menthol, peppermint oil, eucalyptus oil and cajuput oil, and there is limited information about its safety during pregnancy. The product information advises against use during pregnancy unless the potential benefits outweigh the risks.

Your healthcare professional can help you decide whether Olbas Inhaler is appropriate or recommend a suitable alternative for relieving nasal congestion.

Olbas Inhaler is not recommended while breastfeeding. Although no effects on breastfed infants are anticipated at therapeutic doses, it is not known whether the active ingredients or their metabolites pass into breast milk. If you are breastfeeding and experiencing a blocked nose, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before using Olbas Inhaler. They can help you assess the potential risks and identify a suitable alternative for managing congestion while breastfeeding.

Olbas Inhaler can be used as needed by adults and children aged 12 and over, but you should not use it more than four times an hour. This means the instructions set an hourly limit rather than a specific maximum number of uses per day. Always follow the product leaflet and avoid exceeding the recommended frequency. If your blocked nose persists for more than seven days or your symptoms worsen, contact your doctor for advice.
