A recent report by the FDA stated that phenylephrine, the "active" ingredient in many nasal decongestants, is ineffective in relieving symptoms like runny nose.
Phenylephrine arrived on the market in 2006 after pseudoephedrine (original Sudafed ) was taken off OTC pharmacy shelves.
Despite the FDA panel's report, you'll still see phenylenephrine products on your shelf tomorrow .
