Summary 1 Research Sources

Air pollution is worsening year-on-year, which favours the use of cough, cold and allergy (hay fever) remedies. Fine dust warnings used to be sounded mostly in spring, but this has become an all-year-round problem. Nasal sprays recorded the highest retail volume and value sales growth in 2018 due to this environmental change. Product development is also noticeable, not only among products with allergy-remedy functions, but also sprays that claim to wash off fine dust residue in nostrils.
