FAQ

  • Is it okay to use a nasal decongestant such as Vicks Sinex Decongestant Nasal Spray?

    Yes, you can use a nasal decongestant such as Vicks Sinex Decongestant Nasal Spray, as it includes a decongestant that unclogs your nasal passages and provides relief almost immediately. Avoid using this product for more than seven days consecutively. If symptoms persist, consult your GP or Pharmacy Online pharmacist.

  • How long do blocked noses last?

    Usually, a blocked nose caused by a virus won't last too long. But if it lasts for over 10 days, there may be something else causing it.

    You can expect a blocked nose to last for up to four weeks, or even chronically if your nasal congestion has been caused by an allergy. If your nasal congestion is due to a cold, it may last between five and 10 days, while sinusitis-induced congestion may last up to three months (or chronically).

    You can get rid of a blocked nose by:

    • Applying menthol oil or ointment.
    • Increasing the room temperature at night.
