What decongestants are available in Finland. My friend suffers from sinus & nasal congestion. In the UK we would be using Sudofed, Sinex, Sinutabs etc. Are these available in Finland ? Thanks

Pseudoephedrine is prescription only as heretostay said. Try Nasolin et.al. which has Xylometazoline, they are over the counter stuff available.

You can only use Xylometazoline for a max time of 10 days.

Better use Nasonex, this is corticosteroid based...no addiction there. takes longer to work however, might be prescription only , don't know. but getting a prescription is not hard. Just visit the doctors and get it..
