Have and advice on one?
I have a cold or something and my nose is running like
a water faucet. Normally when that happens it drips
down back of my throats and cause chest infection
Instead of a histamine pill..... was wondering if any
kind of over counter nose spray is available as it
wouldn't be "systemic".

I have the same problem, mine is caused by mold allergies. I have found
great relief with sinus buster products. Not exactly frugal, but cheaper
than the regular visits to the allergist.

Most any kind of sinus problem can be helped at least a bit by regular use
of a neti pot. Google if you don't know what it is.

This seems like it would help a lot with congestion but wouldn't
help at all with a runny nose.

It won't immediately stop the drainage, but in my experience (and that of a
lot of other people I've known) after even a few days regular use it will
address the underlying problem that's causing the drainage, which is
irritation of the sinus tissues from things like allergens, other foreign
substances, or infection.
Picture a patch on your external skin where some substance is causing
irritation. Just about everybody knows to wash the substance off or remove
it in some way. The principle behind use of the neti pot is the same.
