Post Nasal Drip remedies?!


Question: Hi all,
Every night, for the past week or so, while I sleep I develop a post nasal drip that leaves me nauseous by morning. I used to alleviate this by using a neti pot before bed each night, but have had to stop for reasons I wont go into.

Are there any other good remedies aside over the counter drugs and prescripts? I sleep rather ellevated and dont use a humidifier because it worsens the problem, despite the fact that my home is very dry.

Thanks!

Post nasal drip,,,,,
I've always used this before going to bed,,,and I use maybe 3 x's a day,,,,,this is very simple.....use a quarter cup of Baking Soda to 1 cup of lukewarm water.....let the Baking Soda dissolve, then get an eye dropper and fill to the top,,,drip in the solution to one nostril at a time, and slowly breathe in, then do the same to the other nostil, this should give you a little more breathing room !!!

I have a +4 allergy to dust mites and have had the same problem. I find that taking a zyrtec and omeprazole at bedtime really helps me. I also take guafenesin most days and drink a lot of water. If you have not seen an allergist, then that may be what you need to do also.

Good luck

Check out grapeseed extract, I take 1mg per pound of body weight and it dries things up real well with no side effects.

Sassy's right, but you can also use warm salt water or buy some plaine saline nasal spray too.
