If nasal congestion and rhinitis are due to allergies, treatment may include antihistamine medications as directed by a physician, such as cetirizine or loratadine. Additionally, nasal irrigation using saline nasal spray under medical guidance can be effective. Local treatment with nasal sprays, such as mometasone furoate or budesonide, may also be used.
