Pseudoephedrine
That exact med. Not the Sudafed with the useless phenylalanine nonsense that has been demonstrated to do fuck all. You may have to ask the pharmacist for it - it's not prescription but Feds made stores move it behind the counter. Ask for the generic, it's cheaper. Really works
Side effects suck though, dry mouth, maybe a little agitation. But it'll clear you right up.
Ask for the real Sudafed. The little red ones say 4-6 hours, but one lasts me all day and minimizes side effects. They work quickly enough that you don't need to get ahead of your symptoms, you can wait until you feel you need more.
