Lewis: You’re not alone in preferring tablets. One of the most popular decongestant ingredients is phenylephrine. It’s found in drugs like Sudafed PE, Benadryl Allergy D Plus Sinus, and Vicks Dayquil Cold and Flu Relief.

But earlier this month, in a rare move, an FDA advisory panel declared that oral phenylephrine is completely useless at clearing up congestion.

I mean, why give advise to someone who posts an article which drugs are useless about how useful your favorite decongestant is. I know sudafed is more than one product, but c’mon, skim something before saying “better yet”.
