Natural oil nasal spray with reduced steroid for chronic sinusitis
This study tests a nasal spray made from mastic gum oil, combined with a lower dose of a standard steroid nasal spray, to treat chronic sinusitis (long-lasting inflammation of the sinuses). It may help reduce symptoms with fewer side effects from steroids.

This trial tests if steroid drops placed directly in the nose can improve smell in people with chronic sinusitis and a blocked smell area. It may help if you have had smell loss and sinus inflammation.
This trial tests a nasal spray called VVN432 in healthy volunteers and people with chronic sinusitis. It checks if the spray is safe and how the body processes it.
This study tests a new sinus stent that slowly releases medicine to treat chronic sinusitis in both nostrils. The goal is to see if it helps reduce symptoms and inflammation better than usual care.
This study tests two treatments for chronic sinusitis: one uses sound waves to deliver a steroid (dexamethasone) through the skin, and the other uses laser acupuncture. It aims to see which works better for reducing symptoms like congestion, facial pain, and reduced sense of smell.
