Question 1

I had septoplasty about six months ago to correct my deviated septum, but ever since, I've been having trouble breathing and can't sleep at all during the night. My nose feels really dry, and it seems like the air isn't getting to my lungs properly. I went back to my doctor, and they said it might be an allergy, but I'm not really convinced. I've been reading about empty nose syndrome and wondering if that's what I might have. Is there any way to cure ENS or manage these symptoms better?

Question 2

I recently started taking Mucolite SR for the sticky mucus at the back of my nose. I'm unsure whether it's better to take it in the morning before food or in the evening. Could you advise on the best time to take it? I'm really eager to know what would work best for my situation.

Accepted Answer

It can be taken at any time of the day as it is a sustained release and a long acting drug, take it your convince and stick to the same routine.
You may notice increased secretions while taking mucolite to minimise it try taking Levo cetrizine before sleep to avoid irritation.

When I use Duonase nasal spray, I notice it ends up in my throat after a while. Should I be swallowing it or is it better to spit it out?

If Duonase nasal spray drips into your throat after use, it is generally safe to swallow. However, if you find the taste unpleasant or if it's causing irritation, you can spit it out. Just ensure you follow the recommended dosage and consult your doctor if you have any concerns.
