Medical Forum / General / Pharmacy / March 2006Non-rebound OTC nasal spray for congestion?
When I mentioned that I started to use an over-the-counter Afrin like nasal spray to one of my physicians, he suggested using Flonase because it did not have a rebound effect. Is there an OTC inhaler that would work well without a rebound? I have used saline inhalers. They help but are not very effective for really bad congestion. I find that low room temperature really contributes to my congestion. Bill -- Ferme le Bush not really...if you are going to use one...find the afrin 12 hour formula...you won't have to use it as much......but none of them should be used more than 3-5 days On 3/11/06 6:35 AM, in article 1142087706.454453.99920@i39g2000cwa.googlegroups.com, > not really...if you are going to use one...find the afrin 12 hour > formula...you won't have to use it as much......but none of them should > be used more than 3-5 days I found, so far, that I can get away with one squirt in each nostril once a day before going to bed. That is about 1/4 of the maximum recommended dose. I can also try using saline solution when it works. Bill -- Ferme le Bush use saline as much as you need to.....no rebound congestion with that |
