Zinc Nasal Sprays Damage Smell
Posted by Shifrah on Monday, July 26, 2010
In a recent Sunday Housecall called Growing Evidence that Zinc Nasal Spray Can Damage Smell on FoxNews, Dr. Isadore Rosenfeld says, "Zinc nasal spray is ineffective ... In addition, if you use it frequently, it can interfere, sometimes permanently, with your sense of smell."

A common over-the-counter homeopathic cold remedy, zinc nasal spray is often reached for to "cure" colds. Instead of risking the use of such a product, Dr. Rosenfeld recommends staying at home, drinking fluids, getting rest, and waiting for the sypmtoms to subside on their own in a couple days.
