I am so happy that this product exists. There are many of my Asian and European friends who don't even know about this product and while it is dangerous, it can be an absolute godsend in times of need.
For all of you doctor-types out there, Afrin is a brand name of oxymetazoline nasal spray. Now i don't know exactly what oxymetazoline hydrochloride actually is but i suspect it is some sort of magic substance that fell from space 80 years ago. The concentration in the spray is only .05 % and i can only presume that if you were to take a one-hundred percent dose that you would unlock the other 95% of your brain capacity.
The main thing that is just so amazing about this stuff is that it really doesn't matter how sick you are and how congested your nasal passages are, Afrin WILL WIN.
I have been in a situation where I was so congested that getting any air through my nose was simply not going to happen and a squirt of this stuff and 10 minutes later I was clearer than I am when not sick.
Plus we have all likely been in that situation where one side was totally clogged and the other side had no such problem. This is almost more annoying than being totally blocked and for me it comes from lying on my side and i guess gravity decides to totally screw me over.
Although this product does come at a price: If you use Afrin for too long or decide you like the super-clear effect it has on you and you decide you are going to use it even after not sick anymore.... you are going to have a bad time.
I have known multiple individuals that got "hooked" on Afrin and had to get on prescription drugs and be carefully monitored by a doctor because their body lost the ability to be clear naturally on its own. This obviously is not what I want to have happen to anyone.
Every time i travel to USA i pick up a bottle of this magical concoction because it is the overall champ of beating sickness. LIke most people, i have been terribly ill a couple times in my life and Afrin never failed to do the job. This has not been the case with a vast majority of other medications I have taken over the years, actually it is the ONLY one and that is extra amazing because just like beer, Afrin is mostly water.
Of course it appears as though I have wasted my money again because as it turns out all i had to do was squeeze one of my fingers to accomplish the same thing.
thanks Dr Mandell!
Thank u man Afrin is safe and effective when used for three days said a spokeswoman for its maker Schering Plough We do not support extended use of this product Though it is not entirely clear why the blood vessels in the nasal lining quickly become tolerant to the drugs shrinking effects
"it's not entirely clear" lol. Well that just backs up my theory of it being space magic even more. :P
I certify what you say, this product is wonderful, my wife and I are addicted to Afrin, hehe, like everything in life, should not be used in excess, but I assure you that if you have your nose covered and you use an inhalation. of "Afrin" In each nostril, your problem will be solved
exactly :)
It is available to buy over the counter in UK.
Gives immediate relief.

Thats great It is a solution that's applied as a squirt into the nostril Once applied Afrin stimulates receptors in the smooth muscle of the blood vessels of the nose, leading to constriction of these blood vessels that, in turn reduces nasal congestion Afrin is not addictive in the same way that other drugs
This is kind of bed product mught be give you relief from frozen nose within 1 to 2 min . Kind of best invovation.

almost none of either. I am just sick and reserve this product exclusively for those times of illness :)
okay. Beware of fruits and dairy as well. Sound pretty insane. Hope you feel better.
If you need to use these kinds of products then either your diet or your environment is poor. Any short term fix is detrimental in the long-term.
actually this is in relation to being very very sick - which happens to most people from time to time.
