I've avoided nasal sprays for years for fear of addiction. This year I got desperate & picked up a bottle of Afrin. Absolutely amazing stuff, unfortunately it's extremely addictive.
I've been using it for a couple days now at 1/3 the recommended dosage. My thinking is that perhaps at 1/3 the recommended dosage and only 1/2 the frequency (once a day instead of twice) I might be able to avoid addiction.
I'm a CPAP user so being able to breathe through my nose is essential to me being able to sleep (at least to have productive sleep). If I could get away with once daily for a couple weeks out of the year it would make my life a lot better.
Any thoughts? Should I just pitch the bottle before I get hooked? It's been a godsend the last couple days...
