Re: what can i take for sinus congestion?

  • I got the Neti Pot (or whatever it's called). It was suggested by Dr. Oz... I used it with a saline solution when I had a cold/sinus congestion last week and it worked great!

  • Sudafed.  The real stuff from the pharmacist not the PE formula.

  • I have chronic sinusitis. Which means I get sinus infections all the time. I have one right now. My doctor this time, told me to take Tyelnol for the face/sinus pain, and I am also putting NasoGel in my nose at night to keep it moist and hopefully stop the little bit if bleeding. My doctor did give me a prescription for antibiotics, but told me to try the above items and steam first before relying on drugs. So far, so good - but I have the prescription on hand if need be.

  • I have been taking Sudafed and using a saline nasal wash.  It's made my the Netti Pot people, but it looks a little different.
  • I finally gave in and begrudgingly tried the neti pot - thought I'd hate it.  I am a total convert.  I use it daily now and am convinced it's kept me from getting sick - it's amazing.
