Do over-the-counter medicines like decongestants labeled as "non-drowsy" make sleeping more difficult?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: that's a common side effect, kindly read the labels carefully, also shouldn't take the decongestants if you have high blood pressure or a cardiac problem, best wishes
