Indications & Clinical Uses

Japanisches Heiloel (mint oil) is employed in supportive care of minor respiratory, dermatologic and gastrointestinal discomforts.

  • Nasal congestion: temporary relief of mild nasal blockage when inhaled.
  • Skin irritation: soothing of minor itching or irritation when applied topically.
