Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Sinusitis / June 2005Nasal congestion help
For about a week I've had the worse nasal congestion....not sure if it's sinus issues, virus or what...trying to ween self off of the "hard" nasl drops onto saline, but so far they are all lacking...any ideas? Thanks! KHudson22@yahoo.com Search over 3 million sites anonymous, hidden behind it's IP address!! http://www.searchingsecure.com It might be a sinus infection. I found a way to flood my sinuses with an anti-infective mixture, that has cured my chronic sinus infections, and has kept me infection free for over three years. Here is the link to the detailed documentation of the "Upside Down Sinus Flooding: http://home.bellsouth.net/p/PWP-upsidedown > For about a week I've had the worse nasal congestion....not sure if it's > sinus issues, virus or what...trying to ween self off of the "hard" nasl [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > Search over 3 million sites anonymous, hidden behind it's IP address!! > http://www.searchingsecure.com My MD recommended a histamine allergy pill, non-drowsy (Claritin, Alavert) for me so I do not get congested so bad. I am to use saline rinses 2x a day when I feel congested. This Season now, I am taking one of the above (as they are made with the same ingredient) and am useing Simply Saline rinse. shirley > My MD recommended a histamine allergy pill, non-drowsy (Claritin, > Alavert) for me so I do not get congested so bad.

Claritin only works for a small portion of the population. Try Zyrtec, or Allegra, or OTC Tavist and see which one works best for you. Susan >Claritin only works for a small portion of the population. Try Zyrtec, >or Allegra, or OTC Tavist and see which one works best for you. All of those are in the antihistamine category. An alternative if they are nor helpful is a steroid spray (Nasonex, Rhinocort or Flonase). >>Claritin only works for a small portion of the population.

Right, because the OP asked about Claritin, I posted Claritin alternatives. > An alternative if they are nor helpful is a steroid spray (Nasonex, Rhinocort > or Flonase). Or adjunctive. But I worry about the potential for systemic absorption and adverse reactions, something reported for Rhinocort, at least. Susan My Hubbys MD has him useing both- Rhinacort and Claritin. As he cannot take decongesants with his BP med. shirley >My Hubbys MD has him useing both- Rhinacort and Claritin. In other words one standard steroid spray plus one standard antihistamine. >As he cannot take decongesants with his BP med. Dear all, I saw your post on nasal congestion through Google Groups and wonder whether you might be interested in paricipating in some medical research. This would consist of a fifteen minute phone interview for which we would pay you £20. You would need to answer a few questions about your use of the drug, how and why it was prescribed, etc. If you'd like to get involved please phone my colleague Michael Smith Senior Project Manager for Spectrum Research on (01242) 524157. We need to complete this project by Friday 17th June, so please call before then. Spectrum is a market medical research company based in Cheltenham, UK.
