#VDefended from the cold virus while on the road with the help of Vicks First Defence nasal spray! With its microgel formula, Vicks First Defence helps trap the cold virus that begins to form at the back of the nose. Once you spray it into your nostrils, it helps inactivate the cold virus with its 3.5 pH microgel. Then, when the cold virus has been trapped and inactivated in your nasal passages, the microgel contributes to a “nasal washout” effect, to flush out the cold virus from the nose or down into the stomach.
