Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Is there a decongestant medicine, over the counter, that significantly reduces sinus congestion without drying out the inside of your sinuses? In addition, does this decongestant medicine also avoid causing the side effect of making prostate symptoms worse by way of using active ingredients known to cause problems for those with prostate problems? Thank you, Ken
As soon as I read your question, I instantly thought of Flonase, which you can now get over the counter! As someone who has sinus problems, I use this medication and it's my favorite sinus medication of all time. It doesn't dry me out like other nasal sprays, and it works pretty quickly. I strongly recommend trying it!
I hope I have answered your question. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or if you feel I haven't adequately answered your question.
