A look at prevention

By Dr. Richard Markham, Committee Chairman

Dr. Richard MarkhamWe are proud to work with clinicians, scientists and physicians who are committed to the field of Public Health. This means that much of their research has focused on the issue of disease prevention, as opposed to disease treatment. Disease prevention is an area that, in the past, has received less attention from the medical community. Most physicians, after all, are trained to treat patients who come to them with an illness. But as the costs of medical treatment continue to climb it has become clear that simpler approaches, which make disease prevention accessible to all individuals, must be developed.

One approach that has proved useful is the development of topical skin antiseptics such as alcohol-based hand sanitizers to help reduce the risk of infection by decreasing potential exposure to pathogens. But for many infections the hands serve only as the vehicle that carries germs to the site where infection is actually initiated and introduced into the body, such as the eyes, mouth and especially the nose. The front of the nose at the nasal vestibule is made of skin also. It is this concept of reducing risk at the site where the acquisition process continues such as with hand to nose contact that deserves investigation. It is a goal to use rigorous scientific analysis to ensure that products such as Nozin® Nasal Sanitizer® antiseptic are the most effective they can possibly be.

Nozin Nasal Sanitizer®: Defense that makes sense®

Nozin® Nasal Sanitizer® antiseptic is an innovative, patented product that benefits consumers, health professionals and their patients by providing extra protection against germs. In the past decade, hand sanitizers have become recognized and popularly used to deter transmission of germs. Because hand-to-nose contact is an important mechanism for the transmission of infection, it can be beneficial to promote hygiene on the nasal vestibule skin as well as on the hands.

Nozin® Nasal Sanitizer® antiseptic is specially formulated for the skin at the distal area of the nose (nasal vestibule) and helps control germ populations that come to reside there. Lab tests show that Nozin® Nasal Sanitizer® antiseptic kills harmful germs. Human trial results show that one application of Nozin® Nasal Sanitizer® antiseptic can also be effective.

Unlike many existing products that purport to offer protection, Nozin® Nasal Sanitizer® antiseptic is unique in that it attacks germs at the nasal vestibule which is a known reservoir for microbial colonization. The Center for Disease Control already heavily promotes the importance of frequent hand washing and of hand sanitizers in helping prevent germs residing on hands from being Nozin® Nasal Sanitizer®transmitted to the nose. Nozin® Nasal Sanitizer® antiseptic directly targets the skin at the front of the nose, the nasal vestibule, a critical site of germ transmission.  Nozin Nasal Sanitizer antiseptic adds a targeted level of defense by helping to shield your nose. Regular use of Nozin Nasal Sanitizer antiseptic in conjunction with hand washing could provide a very effective hygienic regimen which can help reduce the risk of infection.

Many top physicians and scientists realize the compelling logic of hygienic innovation that Nozin offers. Nozin Nasal Sanitizer antiseptic is a professionally valued and sensible approach in the effort to reduce the risk of infection.

Significance of Nozin

Studies indicate that the active ingredient in Nozin® Nasal Sanitizer® antiseptic offers substantial activity against a broad spectrum of pathogenic organisms.

In light of the ubiquitous occurrence and medically important consequences of infections, and the evidence that a topical antiseptic can be beneficial, this simple and safe intervention could be an effective aid in the reduction of infections.

Conclusion: Benefits of using Nozin Nasal Sanitizer®

Many of us are aware that every time we are in a crowded plane, bus, train, or in other settings such as hospitals, we may be more likely to be exposed to pathogens.

Better health and enhanced lifestyle can be key benefits of adopting a sound hygienic routine. Consumers who adopt and commit to a low-cost and effective hygienic regimen  know they are doing something to help ensure their health and improve their quality of life.

Top physicians and scientists realize that the hygienic benefits Nozin® Nasal Sanitizer® antiseptic offers could provide critical first line defense aid in high risk, crowded or confined areas (e.g. airplanes, offices, athletic facilities, schools, theaters, hospitals, nursing homes, etc). Nozin® Nasal Sanitizer® antiseptic can help reduce the risk of infection as an important part of health maintenance and in the fight against germ transmission.
