Information from NHS website.
Most people can use decongestants safely, but they're not suitable for everyone.

They should NOT be used by the following groups of people without getting advice from a pharmacist or GP first:

people taking other medicines
people with diabetes
people with high blood pressure
people with an overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism)
men with an enlarged prostate
people with liver, kidney, heart or circulation problems
people with increased pressure in the eye glaucoma
Babies and children
Decongestants should not be given to children under 6 years of age.
don't use if you are or could be pregnant - I added this as it reduces blood flow to the placenta.
