What is a good decongestant to use when flying due to ear pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pseudoefederine: If you can find it Sudafed (pseudoefederine) is a simple decongestant that can help. It is often held at/behind the counter in pharmacies since it can be refined into illicit drugs. It may or may not provide much relief based on the condition of your Eustachian tubes.
