It is used in cases of colds, influenza, allergies, and sinusitis. It also relieves the symptoms of allergic or non-allergic rhinitis. It is recommended to use it for short periods only, usually not exceeding several days, to avoid side effects such as nasal dryness or increased congestion upon discontinuation.
