Can you really get addicted to nasal spray?

Wait, people actually get addicted to nasal spray? I thought that was just a myth 😂

River Cole2026-07-06T23:52:53.000Z

River Cole2026-07-06T23:12:53.000Z

yeah nah it's real. my mate was hooked for months. he'd be spraying that stuff like it was going out of fashion

I've been using it for years and I'm fine. Just don't abuse it people. Common sense.

Eva Anderson2026-07-07T00:40:53.000Z

sense? I thought the same til I had a bad cold and overdid it. It creeps up on you.

Sophie Ngata2026-07-07T00:01:53.000Z

Oh my gosh, I went through this! It was awful trying to stop. Constantly stuffy. Wish someone had warned me properly.

Probably big pharma loves this. Get you hooked on something simple then you're buying it forever. Classic.

Ella Thompson2026-07-07T01:03:53.000Z

100% big pharma gets you on the good stuff then the cheap stuff later. Same with everything.

Interesting read during lunch break. Never knew rebound congestion was a thing. Might stick to saline only!

Mason Young2026-07-07T01:04:53.000Z

saline is the way! or just suffer through the stuffiness. worth it in the long run.

Luca Reid2026-07-07T00:42:53.000Z

FFS I literally just bought a new spray cos my nose is stuffed. Now I'm paranoid 😂

Luca Reid2026-07-07T01:06:53.000Z

lmao same here. typical timing for this article

Mason Young2026-07-07T00:52:53.000Z

snort all the things... wait wrong kind of nasal spray?

Stuff2026-07-07T01:05:53.000Z

Bit of a puff piece from stuff again. Pun intended.

River Cole2026-07-07T01:14:53.000Z
