Nasal spray: If you taste it, you are using it incorrectly, warns Tiktok expert. Decongestant sprays contain active ingredients such as xylometazoline or oxymetazoline, which narrow the blood vessels in the nasal mucosa.

Saline nasal sprays, also called isotonic or hypertonic solutions, are a gentler alternative. Such sprays are well suited for daily use, especially in dry indoor air or in times of allergies, such as early bloomers.
