Q. Can I take Nasonex and Zyrtec for sinus block?
Hi doctor,
I found that my nose was blocked. The doctor diagnosed it as sinus block. I first took Otrivin drops and Moxiflox (antibiotic). As there is no improvement, I am taking Nasonex and Zyrtec. Please give your opinion.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
- Your treatment is correct. The Nasonex (Mometasone furoate) spray removes the inflammation, and Zyrtec (Cetirizine) will eliminate the allergic component. Continue the medicines as advised.
- If the problem is getting repeated and present for more than three months, then it is prudent to get a CT scan of paranasal sinuses to rule out any polyp or a chronic rhinosinusitis.
Do revert for further support.
