A study of α-Adrenoceptor agonists on porcine nasal and extra-nasal vasculature: insight into decongestant activity

Background and purposes: Sympathomimetics have long been used as medications to relieve the symptoms associated with nasal congestion, but in the last 15 years, the worldwide market has moved from largely topical formulation to oral consumption. Many of the existing drugs are thought to cause vasoco...
