If you have a problem with frequent congestion due to allergies or a cold, the nasal spray to rely on that is over the counter is Zicam Extreme Congestion Relief. A prescription is not needed. Why is it the best? I have allergic asthma, and I find that due to winter's dry humidity in the northeast, that Zicam is able to bring relief and let me breathe again. One spray in each nostril as I breathe deeply in, and after a couple of minutes, I am able to breathe. It will work on your congestion before you get head congestion. Aloe Vera is used to soothe dryness, so that the nasal passages do not burn. One spray works for 12 hours. There is nothing worse than feeling dependent on a nose spray to clear your nasal passages every couple of hours.
