My name is Rich:
I am a 62 yr old male. I have been on 4-Way Nasal Spray for over 35 yrs. My condition has worsened over the past 5 yrs that I only sleep 1 hour at a time. This addiction interferes with every aspect of your everyday life. In the past few years I've tried Astelin, Nasarel, Folonase, several over the counter Saline sprays taken Sudafed, SinuTabs and nothing works. I am at the end of the road so I am now trying to dilute my 4-Way nasal spray with salt water and reucing the nasal spray by 10 percent each week.....this is my newest remidy. Going cold turkey is about the most agonizing thing a person can endure. Like i said earlier i have been on this stuff for over 27 yrs and i can't expect to get off it over night. If anyone in my position has any good input on this matter please email me with your input and leave me your email address. You can leave a reply to this posting. Please only serious replys. |

Rich, do a search on nasal spray. Your situation has certainly been discussed here before. I wasn't addicted nearly as long as you were and withdrawal was indeed very unpleasant. Good luck! |
