You can apply the oil on your entire body and massage it slowly or on the affected area to get faster results. That way, you receive the oil on the promised day hence enabling you to start enjoying the benefits almost immediately. For a really intense Olbas experience, put a few drops of Olbas Oil in a bowl of hot water, lean over it and cover your head with a towel.

For a kid above two years, sprinkle the drops into a tissue or pint of hot water, then make him/her inhale the vapors for about 3 minutes. It is recommended that women who are pregnant or breast-feeding seek the advice of their doctor or pharmacist before taking any medicine. Olbas Oil is suitable for adults and children as young as 3 months, though Olbas also has a gentler formulation especially developed for little noses – Olbas for Children, also suitable from 3 months.

You can add 20 drops in a bowl of hot water, then place a towel over the head as you breathe in the vapors deeply for around 5 to 10 minutes. You can combine using Olbas oil with other methods like taking long showers and staying hydrated to increase the chances of treating nasal congestion faster and more effectively. The introduction of Olbas Oil into a child's eye contrary to the product's instructions for use, was noted to result in a range of adverse effects including corneal scarring.

For children aged 2 years and over: Add 8-12 drops to a tissue and hold close to the nose area, allowing the child to breathe in the vapours. So, you should not use more oil if you don’t feel the soothing effects, as they will kick in eventually in less than 10 minutes. Nighttime: At night, a drop on a tissue tucked inside a pillowcase can help stimulate and enhance your breathing passages so that you get a good night’s sleep.
