# Rhinorrhea Treatment Summary Multiple effective options exist for managing rhinorrhea depending on the underlying cause. **Intranasal Ipratropium Bromide** is highly effective across common colds and allergic rhinitis without causing drowsiness. **Cetirizine** is the preferred antihistamine for allergy-related rhinorrhea with 24-hour relief, though less effective for viral infections. **Oxymetazoline** provides rapid relief for congestion but should be limited to 3 days to prevent rebound congestion. **Pseudoephedrine** helps with postnasal drip but is less effective for watery rhinorrhea and works best short-term with antihistamines. **Nasal saline rinse** and **Fluticasone Propionate** offer non-pharmacologic and steroid-based alternatives, though the latter may require 1-2 days to take effect.
