    Here’s a solution that worked for a friend who was addicted for years. His ENT physician recommended this method. Buy a fresh bottle of spray and continue your usual dosage. When the bottle is half full, top it up with distilled water or saline solution. When it is again at half, repeat. Keep this up, and eventually the medicine will be barely a component of the spray, and the addiction will be over.

      I hear ya! I suffer with it myself, in addition to cat dander. I have a cat I dearly love...and he loves me....we love each other. But I am highly allergic to him. I successfully weaned myself off nasal spray back in 2016 but this year, back in April, I lost my beloved dog and my cat stayed by my side to comfort me. Unfortunately, it resulted in an allergy attack. I have been using Afrin ever since. UGH! I hate the thought of having to go through this weaning process again. What I do is just use Afrin in one nostril and let the other one swell up like it does. Usually after 3-5 days, it's back to normal and then I do the next nostril. But it's miserable to go through.

    Discovered this stuff and it worked so well that I wondered where it had been all my life! Then I needed more and more leading to my first (and only thus far) experience with rebound congestion. Once I realized what was happening I weaned myself off it by only using it at night to sleep and reduced how much I used. Nowadays I still keep some on hand but try to tough it out till I need a hit of the hard stuff which I still try to restrict to using only at night and only if other decongestants aren't working. But still... that feeling of your sinuses opening up after suffering congestion!

      I was addicted for 6 years, but I weaned myself by starting with a full bottle of decongestant spray and every night topping the bottle up with saline. By the end, your bottle will have 0 decongestant spray and only saline. It took around a month to fully wean off, but I haven't touched it in over a year.

    Switch to one nostril. For example, only do the left. Once your right recovers (you can breathe through it because the rebound effect has finally worn off) allow your left to be clogged while you breathe with your right. Eventually you will have two functioning nostrils again.

It’s better now and I don’t think about breathing all the time, but it’s still the issue, can’t be fully fixed because of parents mistakes but it’s 100% worth it to make an appointment with an ENT specialist and do something about it, at least try. However I can go to the party, meeting, work without a Spray in my bag and im not addicted anymore. I had like 6 doctors and was looking for the right one 2 years but I finally found the one. If I will be still having issues making life difficult I will go to the same one and I think we gonna do nasal septum surgery or again Electrocoagulation because it can be reapeted. I didn’t pay shit for that so it’s even cooler. Sometimes I have shortness of breath and a blocked nose but when I don't think about it, it seems to pass and it’s not so often as before. Xylometazoline made it 100% worse because when you spray the nose and xylometazoline comes off after a few hours then the nose swells double. And spray addiction have a lot of other cons, but don’t make it hard on you, try something to use less spray and less strong version and just look for doctors via Health Insurance Company if possible and test it out. I kinda miss xylometazoline but my nose was swollen inside af, I was bleeding all the time, felt like something is pulsing there. For now, I do nasal rinses and lubricate with moisturizing ointment. Don't let any doctor tell you that there is nothing wrong with your breathing. Steroid sprays from the prescriptions won’t help. Get a sinus CT scan and act. Good luck!

    I would be wary about using steroid nasal sprays for a long time and would do my due dilligence and check them out. I was severely addicted to Afrin and felt suicidal at one point. The big pharma really should make people more aware of this rebound congestion and addiction as it can be serious. Does it suit the money in their pockets not to focus more on this negative side effect? I got off the Afrin by using sinusoothe nose spray after I read an article on their website which was really helpful. They even suggested a dilution method to 'wean off' the offending spray. I have never looked back and don't even use their spray any more.

    I was addicted to afrin for 3 years every day. And it is tough. Even 40 days later I am still congested. I have fewer moments congested than not but it’s still there. Once you get past the first couple days u get used to not being able to breath correctly. Also make sure you take some purposeful deep breathes because sometimes you aren’t getting the oxygen you need with small short congested breathes. This one was a struggle good luck you you all but you can do it and it’s worth it.

    I’ve been hooked on this thing for 8 years. I can’t sleep without it my worst nightmare is finding out I have no spray. Right now it is 4am and I forgot to buy spray after a night out every thing is closed. So I’m here drinking gin straight outta the bottle hoping it will get me drunk enough to endure this horrible blocked nose so I can sleep. I’m gonna see my doctor tomorrow to get me the steroids because this is no way to live.

      I don't know about the bad smell and taste. Could be a sinus infection? not sure. But I am currently addicted to Afrin again. I successfully) weaned myself off of it back in 2016...but here I am again (long story). Anyway, the way I broke my first addiction to this stuff was that I used Afrin in only one nostril at a time. The other one stayed clogged. It took about 3-5 days and it was back to normal and then I started on the other nostril. It was miserable to go through but I did it. Now I have to do it again and I loathe even thinking about it.

      I was addicted for 6 years, but I weaned myself by starting with a full bottle of decongestant spray and every night topping the bottle up with saline. By the end, your bottle will have 0 decongestant spray and only saline. It took around a month to fully wean off, but I haven't touched it in over a year.
