Love the stuff, but there is a clear description to use no more than 3x a day and not more than 7 days in a week = 21 uses. 

 

if use ie 9 days and only at night....  wondering what the impact might be ?

 

any views appreciated.

  The issue with prolonged use is that it can lead to   rebound congestion which can be very  hard to manage and last a long time.

 

There is no data on use  such as you describe (only at night but more than 7 days) so no one can really answer that question nor assure you it is OK.

 

The larger question is why you would need it for so long as these sprays are meant for temporary relief of  congestion from  acute (short-tetm) causes like common cold. 

 

If you have a chronic condition like allergy then there may be more advisable medicines. And if you have chronic sinusitis that requires other treatment.

 

Suggest you see a good ENT. Where in Thailand do you live?

Thanks.

 

My son (6yrs ) picked up a bug, and we still had the kid version of the spray and it's the only relief he got at night. We are on day 6 now, and Dr's could not find the cause....  but I figured it out last night - he added to his list of issues a sore eye and point to forehead "hurts" - pretty sure it's sinusitis 

 

Did tests ie covid, flu and blood tests - all negative 

 

Normally most bugs with Antibiotics, clears in a few days, never had 6 days straight issues like this.

 

Going ENT now.
