Reported Results
Benefits:   Prior to using this spray, I had year round nasal problems: unable to breathe out of one or both nostrils. The symptoms were particularly bad during the summer, and whenever I was in a laying down position. The symptoms greatly interfered with my sleep. When using this spray on a regular basis, my nostrils are completely clear most of the time, and I have minimal nasal problems during my allergy season.
Side effects:   None
Comments:   I believe the recommended dose is two sprays per nostril twice a day. I found that a "maintenance" level of only one spray per nostril each day on works for me.
