Default Sinusitis relief, anyone know?

In the UK I used to get Karvol capsules. You cut the capsule and add the drops to hot water to inhale. Is there anything similar in Australia does anyone know?

Yes, the chemist's here also sell those wee bottles of Olbas Oil - same idea as the bottle of Karvol.

There's also sudafed and there's a teapot thing - Netipot which you put a saline solution in and they are brilliant. A bit weird to do at first but work a treat.

Snort 1 tsp of salt in half cup of boiled semi warm water as if it was a white powder pick me up and also wobble with two fingers the area at top of your nose between the eyebrows a few times every hour...
