CPAP May Make Nasal Spray Ineffective at Night?

came across this tip online and wanted to see whether others agree.

"Hold the Spray Until Morning
Advise patients who are receiving continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy and who use a corticosteroid nasal spray for allergies to spray in the morning rather than at bedtime. If the spray is used in the evening, CPAP may dry it out, making it less effective.

Once again I believe that you may have taken my meaning out of context. I am not trying to but heads with you on this. I will stop asking you questions, and following this discussion for that matter.

Rock, Banyon winked at you, but it is good to remember, though I don't think you meant anything by the comment. Those of us who are patients like to be called part of the team. And some of us (not me) have learned quite a lot over the years. That term "just a patient" can raise hackles. Don't take this so seriously. We all know you don't consider us that way. But it might be good career advice for someone else on the forum

The implications of his post were insulting.
We are kind of off the subject here which is when to use cortiosteroid nasal spray, in the morning, or at night.

I don't use them, don't have bad allergies, in spite of Hampton Roads, VA year round allergy season.
