If you have to use a nasal decongestant, be sure to get one that has the maximum dose of phenylephrine at 10 mg. Some of the other brands or the combination types have only 5 mg so you only get half the strength. Phenylephrine is the only ingredient that is available when pseudoephrine was taken off the market for abuse potential.
I used to take the Sudafed formula that has chlortrimeton or CTM which is an antihistamine like dephenhydramine or Benadryl which can make you sleepy. Since I need something that doesn't make me drowsy during the day, the Sudafed Non-Drowsy 24 hr formula does the trick. You have to remember to use this product sparingly otherwise the effects wear off or you gain tolerance and so eventually any decongestant will not work if you use them repeatedly day after day.
Use only when needed, give your body time to not develop a tolerance effect and the medicine will work well.
