Is otrivin safe? steroid sprays didnt help.my ige count came ,17.5 kua/l only otrivin helped can i take it every week two times without rebound?

Otrivin: Its a heart stimulant and should be used with caution if you have mitral stenosis. You should clear it with your cardiologist. Steroid sprays take two to three weeks to work. They may work better if you take an antihistamine as well. ( dont take one with sudafed)
