Works for Pain Relief but No Decongestant
I'm not normally an Excedrin fan but I had a horrible headache from my allergies one day while at work and had to find fast relief so I grabbed this Sinus Headache formula from the very limited selection in the tiny pharmacy nearby and gave it a try figuring it was better than nothing. It was better than no medication at all, but not much. I really cannot tell the difference between this formula and the many others from this particular brand. They all seem to be the same pills with different names and packaging. These do not seem to be any different than the standard formula. They are basically just pain killers. I was hoping for a bit of a decongestant since it was targeted for sinus headaches but alas, I was disappointed on that front. The pills were a bit difficult to swallow since they're round and, as far as I could tell, uncoated. They finally went down though with a bit of juice to help them on their way. I'm not fond of the way these make me feel though. While they did take away my headache they made me super hyper and I was zipping around the office all afternoon. My boss was probably thrilled that I was so productive, but the hyper feeling was uncomfortable. Overall, these are not really that different from any of the brand's other formulas and if you have serious sinus issues or allergies it is really best to purchase another brand that has a decongestant in it a well.
