A new webpage has been created and uploaded to our website on rhinitis medicamentosa, a devastating sinus/nasal condition with symptoms of severe chronic obstruction/congestion. This condition occurs when over-the-counter nasal decongestant sprays are used more frequently (every 12 hours) and longer (3-5 days) than directed.
Such nasal decongestant sprays include the common and popular Afrin and Zicam nasal sprays. These sprays contain one of these active ingredients: phenylephrine, neo-synephrine, oxymetazoline, and xylometazoline.
This condition has also been portrayed in the New York Times and the article can be read here.
Check out the webpage here.
