nasal strips

The holiday season is upon us - and so is cold and flu season! Treatments for the viruses common at this time of year can include cold medicine, cough syrup, and decongestants. But with so many options, how do you make sure your medicine is up to your high standards? We tested four brands of soft gel capsules, all designed to treat cold and flu symptoms.

When fighting off a virus, nasal congestion is common. Adhesive nasal strips are especially useful for relieving congestion. Made out of a rectangular material with an adhesive backside, the strip is secured across the nose, helping to open the nostrils. In addition to helping relieve nasal congestion, they also help alleviate snoring.

The strip’s adhesive needs to be strong enough to keep the strip on the nose and yet gentle enough to peel away from the skin without damage when removed. Our texture analyzers are the perfect tool to test the adhesiveness and stiffness of nasal strips. Learn more here.
