Sinus Plumber Pepper Nasal Spray – Sinus & Allergy – Natural Relief – Original Formula – 1 fl oz

Stings a little but this stuff is amazing! I was getting sinus headaches a couple of times a week and started 1 spray in each nostril, 1x a day and have not had a headache since. Its been about 4 weeks now. I highly recommend!

This product actually works well ! Very Effective’

This was recommended to me when I was sick from a NP at the doctor. It does WORK, it will clear you out but yes it will burn like nobodies business. Luckily that burn doesn't last but a few seconds but it will clear your sinuses!

I don't usually write reviews, but had to for this product because I think it significantly cut down the amount of time I spent sick. It's best utilized in conjunction with a neti pot; first I rinse my sinuses using the pot (rinse twice, one rinse through the right nostril and then one through the left nostril), then go into child's pose and blow gently to drain the rest of mucus and water. Then, I take the spray and spray it once in the left nostril, once in the right, once in the left again, then one final time in the right, gently taking my time on each side and sniffing/inhaling for a good minute or two between each spray. Be warned, this spray is NOT for the faint of heart and it WILL sting the first few times you use it. It feels somewhat like sticking some wasabi up your nose. But my god is that sting rewarding. I actually tear up after each spray, but power through until I've made it through all 4 sprays. After spraying, I go back into child's pose and gently blow again to drain the excess snot that results from spraying. When I'm all done, I can breathe perfectly clearly and feel like a new man for a good hour or so before my sinuses clog up again. This spray is tremendously healing and will drastically speed up your recovery time from cold and flu if you can use it after doing a neti pot rinse every few hours throughout the day. I really believe in the healing power of cayenne pepper and I think that's why this spray is so effective; the neti rinse clears out the sinuses so that the cayenne pepper can then come in and coat the walls of the sinus cavities, at which point the cayenne pepper's antibacterial properties will take effect and help the body to fight off the infection.

I completely understood what I was getting myself into. I mean, it’s made Cayenne pepper and horseradish and it goes up my nose. I KNEW this couldn’t feel good. But yet somehow, I still wasn’t adequately prepared for just how powerful the burn of intense pepper would be in my nose. Crap; now I have to do the other nostril. Everything will run. Everything. You snot, you blot, you will cry and you may even think whoever invented this stuff is insane, but holy cow does it clear you out! I was sick and struggling with getting anything to drain. I’m on day 3 and I’m already getting used to the burn. If you’re desperate to breathe again, buckle up butter cup, and give this a go! This remedy is 100% worth it and will clear you out!

I get such bad sinus headaches that I have thrown up from them. The other morning I woke up with one of those awful headaches, and I used Sinus Plumber and my headache went from a 9 to a 2 very quickly. So, before I go to sleep I use a few pumps in each nostril and have not woken up with any headache. I will not be without this product. Just a warning, it stings, but I can handle the sting so much better than the terrible headaches.

There's exactly zero capsaicin in this. The "burning" sensation is entirely the ascorbic acid (aka, vitamin c). The "ingredients" list shows it only in the sense that it's homeopathic. That means it contains NONE of it. It is supposed to technically have has at least one molecule of any ingredient listed, per homeopathy, and the it's diluted to the point that it's 100% undetectable. What's done in practice is they never add any of the stated ingredients because it's pseudo-science and it's a waste of money to do. So they just never add it and list it as undetectable amounts "because it's been diluted so much, but the water molecules are sentient and intelligent, and remember what they were next to so they act like it in ways you can't measure but we say it acts like the other molecules". Anyway, I mistakenly didn't know it was fraudulent aka homeopathic when I purchased it, but when it arrived I noticed the label. My mistake. Its 100% fraudulent. It's homeopathic meaning it doesn't have the active ingredients it lists. Vitamin C aka ascorbic acid will burn and that's in the inactive ingredients list. Spray it on your tongue. Zero spice whatsoever. Zero capsaicin. It's clever marketing for impressionable individuals and/or people who benefit form the placebo effect and don't understand coincidences or outside factors or...that vitamin c burns briefly.

I was so happy with this product, I felt it was stronger and better than the Xlear Max Nasal Spray with Capsicum as it also had horseradish and wintergreen in it, but for the same-ish price, you get 1/3 the contents. It worked great for some mild congestion, where you can still breath through it, although the results didn't last as long as I had hoped. Either way, I was thrilled to have a nose spray that did not have oxymetazoline as the main ingredient which only helps until it starts making things worse. Well a few days ago, I had some pretty thick congestion or swelling in my nose, and this stuff did nothing to clear through it other than sit on top of the blockage and just burn the surrounding area of my nasal and sinus passages. It literally would not go through. I even took a q-tip through my sinus to push the spray in and kinda clear the way a little in case it needed help. It really did nothing for the blockage. Then I ended up having to take an oxymetazoline based spray for immediate relief. So, while it may work for weaker congestion where it's not really needed, it does not work for serious congestion. It might help for headaches, but only because the slight burn could distract you or your pain signals temporarily, but I don't have experience with that now. The burn is tolerable, even with like 15 sprays sitting in a backed up nostril, think of maybe eating a spicy hot wing, having it go down your windpipe, then coughing to get it out, and it goes into your nose kind of burn. It goes away typically in 30-60 seconds and the bulk of the sting is really only there for an initial few seconds. I had high hopes for this, indirectly convinced my friends I was a masochist because of this, stating it worked, only to find it let me down when I really needed it. Overall, where I once would recommend, I now would not. It let me down.
