English term or phrase: nasal decongestant
Dilute Your Decongestant
If you take a medicated nasal decongestant, like Afrin, don't overdo it. Using it for just 3 days in a row can irritate your nasal lining and make sinusitis worse. To prevent this, replace half of your decongestant spray with water that's been boiled for 10 minutes. This diluted solution should still relieve symptoms well, and you can use it for up to 6 days.
nasal decongestant有没有比较通俗而准确的译名?我嫌“鼻减充血剂”洋味过重:))

鼻通


Explanation:
无论是减充血剂还是血管收缩剂,其最终目的就是保持鼻子通气。所以鼻通更易懂,当可以根据具体情况稍加修饰,如鼻通喷剂等。
