How it works
Quercetin inhibits mast cell degranulation, reducing histamine release and the allergic inflammatory cascade that drives sinonasal congestion. It also has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that may reduce mucosal oedema.
Evidence is mostly in vitro and animal studies — limited human clinical trial data. May interact with certain medications including antibiotics and blood thinners. Choose a quercetin with enhanced bioavailability (e.g. quercetin phytosome or combined with bromelain). Consult a pharmacist if on other medications.
Availability
Available at pharmacies and health food stores without prescription. The form of supplement matters — check the remedy description for the recommended form.

“Some improvement but not as dramatic as I hoped. Might need longer to see full benefit. Still continuing.”
