Choosing an approach to snoring

Snoring remedies address different needs. Start with the cause, the product’s intended purpose and whether medical assessment is needed. No single approach suits everyone, and reduced noise does not establish that sleep apnoea has been treated.

Practical first steps

Side sleeping, reducing alcohol, stopping smoking and weight management if you are overweight may help. Read our practical guide to reducing snoring for the next steps.

How the options differ

  • Nasal strips and dilators: may help with airflow through narrow nasal passages.
  • Oral appliances: reposition the jaw or tongue. Professional fitting and follow-up are important.
  • CPAP: is commonly used for diagnosed obstructive sleep apnoea under clinical guidance.
  • Surgery: is considered in selected cases. Results vary and require specialist assessment.

These approaches are not interchangeable. A solution applied through the nose may have its intended action elsewhere; check its instructions.

Asonor’s intended purpose

Asonor® Anti-Snoring Solution is a medical device intended to reduce snoring through local lubrication and hydration of the mucous membranes in the throat. Its jet-stream applicator carries the solution through the nostrils to the throat. Correct application matters, and results vary.

When to seek medical advice

Breathing pauses, waking up choking or marked daytime sleepiness need medical assessment. Asonor does not treat sleep apnoea or replace prescribed treatment. See sleep apnoea and medical advice and our guide to snoring and warning signs.
