Guest guest Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 I'm in the same boat. I have done sinus rinse in the am and pm. folowed by patanase nasal antihistimine spray. then that helps to around noon. drainage comes back again. so I take a XYZAL antihistime tab. and night time routine same as am. AT night is is the worst for me. I have really bad drainage and tightness. sooo I take alburtal for tight chest? oh other asthma med qvar and singualr. Anyone got a solution for nighttime drainage and tightness? I usually cough for about 1-2 housr before I can go to sleep.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Mucinex is great for breaking up chest congestions. Another good OTC product (for me anyway) is Nasacrom..which as the name suggests, has cromylyn sodium (AKA Intal) as one of the active ingredients. Nasacrom is a nasal spray. The best prices I have seen for both of these products is at Target...about 17 for the mucinex and 15 for the nasacrom...(Walgreens had the SAME mucinex box (same dose, same # pills etc) for 46.00!! I about fainted...then I drove to Target and found it for the usual 17.00. Both of these seem to work really good for me when my sinuses/nose are bothering me. The nasacrom helps control the nasal aspect of the allergies and the mucinex ensures that anything that does make it down into my chest doesnt suckerpunch me with bronchitis.Looking for spoilers and reviews on the new TV season?
