Hi..
Welcome to healthcare magic...
Nasivion is nasal decongestant it should not be used continuously for more than 7 days..as it will lead to more congestion and nasal blockage...this is called as rhinitis medicamentosa...so stop using nasovion and write your complete symptom history to healthcare magic and find better long term solution ...we are happy to help you...
