According to the American Heart Association, 76.4 million Americans have high blood pressure.* If you are one of them, there are some important facts to consider before reaching for an over-the-counter remedy this cold and flu season. Best practice is to always check with a physician before using a new medication, even if it’s available over the counter, as some treatments may contain ingredients that could interact with other medications. Nasal decongestants may fall into this category.A non-medicated nasal spray alternative such as Ocean Saline Nasal Spray ($4.99 MSRP. Available at drugstores nationwide) might help. This #1 pharmacist-recommended nasal spray helps to loosen nasal mucus and flush out nasal passages without interacting with other medications.
