My baby is only a month old and has a nose block which makes it hard for him to breathe. I am worried about him and want to know if it's okay to use Nasivion 0.025 for a little one his age. The doctor said to use Nasoclear, but I couldn't find it anywhere. What should I do? Can you recommend anything else that's safe?
