What over the counter medicine can we take for sinus problems? This is the first time I have been sick since surgery. I can not get into the doctor until the middle of next week. I don't want to suffer that long.

Thanks

Well, all I could find is what NOT to take, so just avoid these items.  Looks like there arent any sinus meds on this list so your options are open.  I like just the store brand sinus meds.

Avoid these Drugs:

Advil
Alka Seltzer
Anacin
Ascriptin
Aspirin
Bufferin
Cloricidin
Cortisone
Dolobid
Empirin
Excedrin
Feldene
Fiorinol
Ibuprofen
Meclomen
Motrin
Nalfon
Naprosyn
Norgesic
Tolectin
Vanquish

Thoughts become things... choose the good ones!

I never thought about a nasal spray. I can't even remember when I had my last sinus infection was. My sister is plagued with them. I did go to the urgent care clinic and they gave me an antibiotic. I should be feeling better soon. (hope, hope).
