I've used it before since nasal Polyps can reoccurim .doing a process of elimination and fell that this spray could be the culprit, I would appreciate any help or advice thankyou.

Yep if I use Sudafex, Sinex, Beconase or Otrivine sprays my RLS is a lot worse too. I only use them now in the morning or latest 3 hours before bed time.

Hi Tease-ah,ta for replying, I'm taking your advice and using the spray in the mornings,hopefully it will lessen the RLS.

A daily magnesium suppliment and 3-4 exercise sessions per week seems to sort mine out.

Well I must admit I do forget to take it,then I don't think I should take it right before going to bed.I will take it after hours before.
