First seen Apr 10, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study compares two gels applied inside the nose to see which better reduces how often nosebleeds happen. About 162 people who get nosebleeds at least twice a month will use either a plant-based gel (B-sitosterol) or plain petroleum jelly (Vaseline). The goal is to find a simple, safe way to ease this common problem.
