Zinc Supplements
Zinc is an essential mineral that can help reduce the duration and severity of your nasal congestion. Take this supplement immediately as you notice the symptoms to get the best effects. Just take it as a throat lozenge and allow it to dissolve fully in your mouth. Avoid swallowing or chewing. When purchasing, keep in mind to go for either zinc acetate or zinc gluconate. The recommended dosage is between 10 and 20 milligrams every 2 hours. Avoid exceeding 40 milligrams on a daily basis as it would lead to some harmful side effects. [8]
