Treatment methods for rhinitis and nasal congestion include medication. Rhinitis is primarily a condition caused by inflammation of the nasal mucosa. It can be relieved by using saline nasal sprays, or treated with nasal spray medications such as budesonide or fluticasone propionate as directed by a physician. Additionally, if the condition is allergy-induced, antihistamine drugs such as cetirizine or loratadine may also be used for treatment.
