Pseudoephedrine, which is found in behind-the-counter products like Sudafed, is effective at clearing congestion, Dr. Dykewicz said; just keep in mind that it can come with side effects. After that, you run the risk of rebound congestion: when the mucosal surfaces in your nose swell, making you feel even more clogged up than before. There are some sprays that you can use for longer stretches, without the rebound risk, namely steroid sprays that contain ingredients like fluticasone (Flonase) or triamcinolone (Nasacort), which are available over-the-counter. Can I treat congestion without medication? In many cases, you can treat a stuffed-up nose by standing in a steamy shower or using a humidifier to help clear your nasal passages, Dr.

From choosing the right air purifier to modifying your HVAC system, here’s some expert insight on how to handle excessive wildfire smoke. Wildfire smoke and your HVAC systemAir purifiers are one way to deal with wildfire smoke, but they’re not the only weapon in your smoke-fighting arsenal. Other ways to cope with wildfire smokeRunning your HVAC system and air purifier with the right filters is the key to coping with wildfire smoke. These work by surrounding a traditional box fan with air filters, turning it into a surprisingly great air purifier. Wildfire smoke can exacerbate seasonal allergies, though medications such as Claritin, Allegra, Zyrtec and Xyzal can help provide nearly immediate relief.

Kenvue is well-positioned for accelerated growth following its separation from parent company Johnson & Johnson, according to JPMorgan. Following its spinoff earlier in May, Kenvue is the largest pure-play consumer health company in the world. The company holds commonly-known brands such as Neutrogena, Tylenol, Aveeno and Zyrtec — amounting to 10 brands with sales greater than $400 million. "We view KVUE as uniquely positioned to benefit from consumer mega trends (self-care, aging)." JPMorgan thinks Kenvue is still trading at an attractive valuation despite jumping since its May 3 IPO, which was priced at $22 per share.

A Bahamian judge denied FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried's request to be let out on bail. Bankman-Fried's lawyer argued that he should be released because of his vegan diet and reliance on several medications. His lawyers said Bankman-Fried needed to keep to his vegan diet and had to take a number of medications, including Adderall and Zyrtec, according to reports. Bankman-Fried's lawyer, Jerome Roberts, said the FTX founder is not a flight risk because he owns real estate in the Bahamas, CoinDesk reported. A phone number listed for Bankman-Fried's lawyer in the Bahamas went to voicemail.
