The Claim
Nitric oxide nasal spray is safe for use in adults with mild COVID-19, as no serious adverse events were reported in the treatment group during a 9-day intervention period in a randomized trial.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
A nose spray with nitric oxide was tested on adults who had mild COVID-19. The study found that no one had any serious side effects from using the spray for 9 days.
