Abstract

An internal nasal dilator (10) and compound delivery method presents an improved dilator including a U-shaped clip (32) having septum engaging pads (48, 50), first and second nasal expanders (34, 36), and first and second delivery elements (70, 72). The (48, 50) pads engage the septum (16) along planar surfaces (52, 54). Each of the expanders (34, 36) further include a conforming nostril engaging element (58) and a flexible arm (56) interconnecting the engaging element (58) and clip (32). The delivery elements (70, 72) are each adapted to receive and retain a quantity of a compound and to discharge the compound over a period of time.
