Dependency on Nasal drop
I had a septoplasty surgery about 12 years back. Since then I was have been using otrivin whenver I felt a nasal congestion. Though initially the dependency was not much, but now, I have to use it everyday before going to bed. I am afraid this is going to affect me in the future. Is there anything to worry about?
