Nasal spray for decongestion

[Jfritz517]

Does anybody have a recommendation for relieving sinus pressure? I am looking for a nasal spray, was going to try Flonase. I’m going to go look for a nedi pod but I was hoping to find a spray

If you want immediate relief pick up a spray that has real decongestant in it. Because addicts by them in quantities to distill the active ingredient from them for a high, you might not see them over the counter these days so you may have to ask for it.

The steroid nasal sprays like Flonase take two to three days to take effect, I believe.

Okay, thank you

If you have a Sam’s Club near you, they have Flonase and their own Member’s Mark brand that is much cheaper.

yes, the generic works just as well - the kroger brand is what i use in the morning.  here in the south, it's a Godsend, lolz - there is always something growing most of the year!!

I use Nasacort 24 hr. I tried Flonase...but its scent actually triggered my allergies. I was told by a medical professional that Afrin can work short term.

you can develope a dependency on Afrin if you use it alot, that's why they say short term.

Flonase did the job, thank you all for your input.  I will keep Afrin in mind for next time though!

Glad you are feeling better!
