Is there a good nasal decongestant spray these days ?

Otrivine

+2 , for the product anyway (The drops are fantastic, I know it is also sold as a spray but I have never used it in this way.).

Although it is not for prolonged use see the quack if you still need to use it after three-four days.

Slightly off topic.....

Define "good".

Beware that these sprays are all very addictive and should you become addicted, very hard to get off. And I speak from experience.

[Grimly Curmudgeon]

Otrivine still works for me, on the very odd occasion when I need it. Beware of 'bounce-back' when using it. Google it.

Rather than a spray, I find Olbas Oil on a handerchief or the top edge of the duvet cover quite effective.

Or get your mum to rub Vick on your chest.

A very important issue.

One reason that gentle "steaming" is often recommended.

Try Sterimar, or even Neilmed. Depending on how bad you are, even a Netipot.

This is a true thing, whatever your first reaction is.

I hear that some people use a white powder, though I don't know if it is effective as a decongestant.

Didn't some pop bint once prove it does, well, it turned her 2 nostrils into one big one, so i assume she could breath easier.

First time I have heard Danniella Westbrook referred to as a "pop bint" (Seems fitting though, the bint part if not the pop.).

Nasonex on prescription from the doctor. possibly under another name where you are..I have used it twice a day for several years and find it good for a continuing condition. David G
