What Conoxia is<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Conoxia contains oxygen that is used for inhalation. It is colorless, odorless, and tasteless and is supplied in a gas bottle that has a pressure regulator to reduce the gas pressure. The gas cylinder contains only pure oxygen. Conoxia increases the level of oxygen in the blood (increased oxygen saturation). Conoxia means that more oxygen is transported to all tissues in the body. What Conoxia is used for<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Under normal pressure, Conoxia is used:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Conoxia under normal pressure can be used in all age groups except in children who should not be treated with Conoxia in an acute attack of Horton’s headache.

However, breastfeeding should be avoided during the treatment itself as there is a risk that the newborn baby will be exposed to the pressure and compression in the pressure chamber. It is safe to breastfeed before and after treatment in a pressure chamber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The effect on fertility when Conoxia is used in pressure chambers has not been studied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can drive after using Conoxia provided your doctor thinks you are capable of it.
