Abstract

Sales of over-the-counter decongestant nasal sprays in Denmark from 2011 to 2023 have doubled. This article highlights the potential risks associated with prolonged use of decongestant nasal sprays, such as rhinitis medicamentosa. We conclude that there is an urgent need for increased patient education on proper use and possible side effects of over-the-counter decongestant nasal sprays, as well as a need for more substantial data on side effects related to decongestant nasal sprays to guide health authorities in future regulation.
