Hello , I have been congested since Saturday with headaches. I am 18 weeks pregnant. I already do the sinus rinse 3 times a day. Can I use dryxoral decongestants?

Hello Mrs., thank you for your question, and congratulations!
The use of Drixoral is not recommended as a first line treatment during pregnancy. You are already doing well with the use of Sinus Rinse, but I would encourage you to perform nasal hygiene as often as necessary during the day, and at least 30 minutes before bedtime; there is no maximum during the day.
For headaches, acetaminophen (Tylenol) is a good solution.
I hope I have been of some help to you and I am available if you have any further questions!
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
