Guest guest Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 I'm having a terrible time with sinuses, I can't breathe through my nose and it's exhausting. Someone here suggested neo-synephrine I don't know if it's ok.I don't know what either of these hydrochlorides are, either Phenylephrine or Oxymetazoline. Can either of them affect adrenals or cortisol levels? All I got from the website was this vague info:Phenylephrine hydrochloride is a rapidly-acting topical nasal decongestant which is recognized as safe and effective by the FDA when used as directed. When applied directly to the nasal passages, it causes the constriction of blood vessels in the mucous membranes, resulting in their shrinkage; thus promoting drainage, improving breathing and relieving congestion. Oxymetazoline hydrochloride is a rapidly-acting topical nasal decongestant with the longest duration of action available in the market. It is recognized as safe and effective by the FDA. When applied directly to the nasal passages, it causes the constriction of blood vessels in the mucous membranes, resulting in their shrinkage; thus promoting drainage, improving breathing and relieving congestion. The long half-life of the drug allows for all night 12-hour relief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
