For Nasal Congestion "I bought the AYR Saline Nasal Gel on the recommendation of my pulmonary doctor. Almost immediately after using a little bit to coat the nasal interior, I experienced sneezing and burning of the interior nasal cavity. My nose started to run. I am so thankful, and I was able to blow most of this out. I tried it again tonight, and I had the same experience. It is now in the garbage. I went back to using organic pure sesame seed oil...."

For Nasal Congestion "I purchased Ayr Nasal Mist after experiencing another nosebleed and reading that saline spray would help keep the nose not so dry. Immediately after taking just a small spray in each nostril, I developed a sore throat, sneezing, and throat irritation similar to a cold. I have not taken any more of this product, and my symptoms are slowly clearing up. I also experienced headaches. At first, I thought it was just a coincidence and I was getting a cold, but after reading about this product, now I know I cannot use it ever again. I should have read this before I purchased it."

For Nasal Congestion "Makes me sneeze every time, and is scented, which is irritating and may even be the cause of the sneezing. Despite that, I persist in its use as its moisturizing gel properties are entirely effective."

For Nasal Congestion "The Ayr Saline Nasal Gel burns my nostrils so bad. Then the sneezing starts, and I end up having to blow my nose, which removes most of the product."
