The American Journal of Emergency Medicine (2007) published a case report of an ischemic stroke in a man with naphazoline abuse history. No risk factors for cerebrovascular events were found in his clinical history. Several studies raised the hypothetical idea that oral and nasal decongestants can cause cardiovascular and neurological problems if they are misused.Keywords:
Nasal and oral decongestants, side eff ects, and public information.Downloads
