Someone else on the list swore by a product called "Little Noses"
decongestant nose drops for human infants and children. It warns on
the label to not use it with any other decongestants and that there
might be side effects of increased nasal discharge, sneezing, and the
ones that bother me the most, burning and stinging. You could ask your
vet about it. I don't think I'd spray it into the nose, if the
congestion was bad enough to warrant trying it, I'd probably use a qtip
to lightly apply, maybe even followed by some vasiline to prevent
burning.

I agree about L-Lysine - that stuff works well on Herpes
URI. I sometimes
usually use 250-500 mg twice a day, and I generally don't worry about
overdosing. It's so easy - you can mix it with food, or syringe it with
fluid, or use the paste. Great stuff.
