Product Information

Vicks First Defence is a nasal spray to use at the very first signs of a cold, such as a tickle, sneeze or sore throat. Its micro-gel traps cold viruses at the back of the nose and helps your body clear them, which can stop a cold from taking hold.

It is a medical device rather than a medicine. Start it early: it works best within the first day or so of noticing symptoms, or after you've been around someone with a cold.

Key features

  • Use at the first sign of a cold
  • Micro-gel traps cold viruses in the nose
  • Helps the body clear the virus
  • Medical device, for adults and children 12+
  • 15ml spray

How to use

  • Use as soon as you notice symptoms, within 24 to 36 hours.
  • Keep your head upright (don't tilt it back). Point the nozzle slightly outwards, towards your ear, and give 2 to 3 sprays into each nostril. Don't sniff hard.
  • Leave at least 4 hours between uses. Do not use more than 4 times in 24 hours.
  • Continue for 2 days after your symptoms have gone.
