Question 1 of 5

A gardener needs a decongestant because of seasonal allergy problems and asks the nurse whether he should take an oral form or a nasal spray. Which of these is a benefit of orally administered decongestants?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Lack of rebound congestion. Orally administered decongestants do not typically cause rebound congestion when compared to nasal sprays. Nasal sprays can lead to rebound congestion, where the symptoms worsen once the medication wears off. This is because nasal sprays can cause a dependency on the medication to maintain clear nasal passages. Orally administered decongestants, on the other hand, do not have this rebound effect as they work systemically and do not directly affect the nasal passages.
Therefore, choosing an orally administered decongestant can help prevent the risk of rebound congestion and provide longer-lasting relief for the gardener's seasonal allergy problems.
