Use of nonprescription drops or nasal sprays might help some patients control symptoms. However, extended use of non-prescription decongestant nasal sprays could aggravate sinusitis symptoms leading to additional medical issues. They should not be used beyond their label recommendation, which is usually no longer than three days. Saline nasal wash or drops are safe for continuous use.
