A member asked:

With high blood pressure, what over the counter remedy should i take for common cold to unplug a stuffy nose?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Saline nasal spray : is always safe, can be used repeatedly, and is very effective if just "plugged." If there is a lot of sneezing and watery drainage, an antihistamine can help to dry secretions and is generally safe with HBP. Chlorpheniramine and diphenhydramine are very effective but somewhat sedating. Allegra, Zyrtec and Claritin are less sedating but are not as quick in onset of action but care dosed only once
