Breathe Right provides instant relief from nasal congestion to help you get a more restful night’s sleep. Find out which Breathe Right product is right for you. The nasal strips are made of flexible, spring-like bands that fit right above the flare of the nostrils. The underside is 3M adhesive so that once positioned on the nose, they stay there. As the bands attempt to straighten back to their original shape, they lift the sides of the nose and open the nasal passages.
