Product overview
Breathe Right Cool Regular is a menthol-scented variation of the Breathe Right series sold by Sato Pharmaceutical. It uses the same two plastic bar structure and regular size (17mm × 55mm) as the standard, with a cool type that releases a refreshing menthol scent when rubbed.
From the moment applied, the repulsive force of the plastic bars gently lifts the nasal wings and expands the nasal cavity, increasing breathability by up to 31% (according to our research, compared to not wearing). Contains no medication, so safe during medication use and no drowsy ingredients, allowing daytime use. Designed for those seeking both nasal expansion and refreshing scent.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q What is the difference between the cool type and the standard type?
A The basic structure to expand the nasal cavity (two plastic bars, regular size 17mm x 55mm) is the same as the standard type. The cool type has menthol applied on the tape surface, and rubbing it with your finger releases a refreshing scent.
Q Is menthol a medication? Does it cause irritation?
A Menthol is applied on the tape surface as a fragrance component and is not a medication. The scent provides a mild refreshing feeling and has no direct medicinal effect on the nose or skin. However, if you are sensitive to scents or allergic to menthol, please refrain from use.
Q Is it safe to use on children?
A Do not use on children under 5 years old. Also, if your child is sensitive to the scent of menthol, please check carefully and decide cautiously.
Q Which one is best if I want to expand my nasal cavity more strongly?
A The cool type retains its scent, but there is no extra cool version in the current lineup. If you want a stronger effect, please consider "Breathe Right Extra Beige (4987316026909)" or "Extra Clear (4987316026916)."
