I have been suffering with a sinus headache and sinus pressure for the last 10 days. I read the reviews for this product and thought...what the heck - I'm going to try this out. WOW! Just like everyone said - it took my headache and pressure away within 30-40 minutes. I will never use anything else. Thank you Advil for making such an awesome product.
