hi alli m taking sudafed for sinus congestion.
when i started taking it i had also severe headache,but now after taking sudafed headache-pain completely went away.
my question is - is sudafed also pain reliever (against headache) or it just helps with sinuses?
Answer:
It may help the headache by releiving the sinus congestion. But it does not contain a pein reliever. Unless you buy the Sudafed with headache relief.
it just helps with sinuses. I know this because all of relatives are in the medical industry.
it relieves the pressure caused by congestion
No but yet it has an expectorant that will dry you up the relief from the headace was probably not cause by allergies. Yet sudafed does hace proberties not from pain relief but to block histamines
Well it not, and than again it is, but only for a sinus headache, it has expectorant in it this drys up the congestion and the congestion relieve the pressure and the headache goes away, but the minute you get congestion, it comes back. Do not try this for a regular headache.
No, there is no pain reliever in Sudafed. If at some time the Sudafed does not completely take away your headache, take it with some Ibuprofen, which is an anti-inflammatory.If you continue to have these symptoms for longer than 3 days or if they get worse, you need to see your doctor because you probably have a sinus infection. If you leave a sinus infection untreated, it can lead to an ear infection and possibly hearing loss.
