Yes. The things in nasal spray won't make you sick. You could drink a whole bottle of the stuff and be unaffected. Almost all the the "stuff" in nasal spray is water. The other ingredients, depending on which brand and such, are designed for use in the nasal passages and will not harm the lungs if they are inhaled completely. They certainly won't affect your digestive tract.

∙ 13y agoNasal spray was never intended to be swallowed. You might consider contacting your local poison control agency asap if this is so.
All outdated (expired) medication, whether it was issued by a prescription or bought over the counter, should be discarded soon after the expiration date.

∙ 13y agoCall the poison control center instead of asking for advice from random people on the internet.
There are lots of different "nasal sprays" with varying effects, and the poison control center people know what's in each of them and what you need to do (which may vary from "nothing, you just drank salt water" to "get to an emergency room immediately").

You can do a saline nasal wash (Google for directions), or just use a saline nasal spray. It helps a lot and you can use the nasal spray often, as it's not harmful.
