Nasal bougies are medicated pencils, specially adapted for the application of medicinal substances to the nostrils. They resemble urethral bougies in shape and diameter, but are 3 3/16 inches in length and are usually made with a gelatin basis. The basis should be melted at a low temperature, and the active ingredients, in fine powder, added with constant stirring, and when the mixture is about to set to a solid mass it should be poured down a warmed glass rod into suitable moulds.
