For Nasal Congestion "Bought 2 bottles of this for both myself and my 14-year-old as our hay fever was very bad. Within a few days, both myself and my daughter suffered with very sore nasal passages that bled, and for my daughter, it became infected. Couldn't use anymore."

For Nasal Congestion "This product was suggested by the pharmacy. Whilst it did clear the blockage, the pain was considerable. I stopped taking it after 2 days (using it as directed), but after 2-3 weeks I am still seeing blood when blowing my nose (especially after coughing). I would suggest being VERY careful about using Otrivin and avoid where possible."

For Nasal Congestion "Good for the congestion, clears you up, however, used for only 1.5 days and the inside of my nose is raw and bleeding. The spray also has hurt/stung the back of my throat. Have used nasal sprays in the past, no other has ever had these effects."
