Try ipratropium nasal spray (Atrovent) for constant runny nose
4
What to Do
Ask your doctor about ipratropium bromide 0.06% (Atrovent) nasal spray, 2 sprays per nostril 3-4 times daily for up to 3 weeks. It specifically targets runny nose when other treatments fail.
Why It Works
Ipratropium is an anticholinergic that blocks the nerve signals triggering nasal secretion. It is uniquely effective for watery rhinorrhea (runny nose) but does not help congestion, sneezing, or itching. It is prescription-only.
Tips
- Best for patients whose primary complaint is a constantly dripping nose
- Can be used alongside nasal corticosteroids and antihistamines
- Does not cause rebound congestion like decongestant sprays
- Short-term use recommended (up to 3 weeks for seasonal allergies)
