Can I take a decongestant orally and as a nasal spray?

Yes, it is safe to take a decongestant orally and use a nasal spray. However, it is important to be cautious of using certain decongestants for more than 3 to 7 consecutive days, as they can potentially worsen congestion. It is also recommended to avoid using products that contain stimulating agents, as they may affect your sleep. Instead, you can try nasal hygiene with a saline solution, which can be used as often as needed throughout the day and before bedtime to help alleviate congestion. It is always best to consult a doctor if you have been experiencing congestion for more than 2 weeks.
