Is Sudafed Head Cold & Sinus Extra Strength An Anti-inflammatory?

Is Sudafed Head Cold & Sinus Extra Strength an anti-inflammatory?
I will be having corrective eyelid surgery soon and have to avoid Ibuprofen & NSAIDs. I thought this Sinus decongestant was simply a decongestant + analgesic, but a nurse suggested it might be an anti-inflammatory.
Would be most grateful for confirmation.
