Guys.. my sinuses are killing me.  What on earth do you take when you get all stuffy and snuffy?  I am afraid to take much of anything these days, but I am miserable!!

Sorry you're feeling stuffy, Jenn.  I take a combination of Pseudoephedrine (30 mg) and chloramphiramine maleate (sp?) (4 mg).  If I also have a sinus headache, I take a couple of tylenol as well.  Usually works for me.  Hope it is useful to you. Feel better soon!

Jenn, I have a sinus infection and had to go to the doc's yesterday...  I think it's this crazy weather or something funky... It's also ragweed season if you have allergies like me... ugh!  Anyway, my doc gave me a shot of some sort of anitbiotic (she told me the name but I'm terrible at remembering that stuff) and I'm on the "zip pack" also...  I feel better today but my sinuses and neck are still hurtin...  I hope you feel better soon!  Go to the doc if you don't feel better soon!!!

I just had to share this, I had what I thought was a sinus infection maybe a mont ago, so I went to the Dr.  he gave me antibiotic and told me to fill up a sport drink bottle with sal****er, stick it up my nose , let it run down into my throat and then blow it all out of my mouth in my back yard. He says it's a way to cleanse your sinuses.  Needless to say I took the antibiotic and left- nuff said.  UGHHHHHHHHHH.   Nancyquack!

My inlaws believe in that sinus flush thing..  It makes me want to gag to even think of it...  But my FIL does that every day.  He even has a special little tea pot looking thing to do it with..

Nothing over the counter ever worked for me. Always went to Dr and got the Z Pak. (Prescription for Zithromax.) Worth every penny. Poor poop. Feel better. Mare xoxo

I take one Benadryl.  Knocks me flat on my keister, but it works.  Doesn't seem to bother Irene (My Pouch). Take care. Ellen

Ahhhhh, miss lady look at cha!!!!  I always have sinus infections and us being from the same place I know how you feel.  Its really bad down there.  But I take Tylenol sius and congestion daytime and nightime.  It works great.  I promise by the next day you will feel so much better.  Just go to Super Wla-Mart down there before school tomorrow and get some, it will give you relief.  Hope you get to feeling better.  Let me know how your feeling.
