Hi,

I believe your best bet is to avoid using more medications since you may be causing more reactivity and allergy or sinus like symptoms based on all the medications they are taking.

Once they have "cooled down" so to speak from all the medication they've been taking then it would be a good time to have them see an allergist or immune specialist to try and get to the bottom of whether or not there could be allergies causing the problems they're having vs. rebound obstructive symptoms due to overuse of medications.

Also, specific allergen testing can be countered with either injectable or oral solutions as opposed to OTC chemicals which are only mildly effective to treat acute symptoms as opposed to treating CAUSES. Make sense?

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
