Sinus and Congestion

$39

Professional care for sinus and congestion, no office visit required. Now treating patients in Texas and Florida exclusively.

When sinus pressure turns into a persistent headache or painful facial tension, you need more than over-the-counter steam. Our providers review your history and symptoms to determine if a prescription is necessary to get you back to your day.

Common symptoms we treat (but not limited to)

Facial pain or pressure (around eyes, cheeks, or forehead)

Persistent nasal congestion or "stuffy" nose

Thick, discolored nasal discharge

Post-nasal drip leading to a sore throat or cough

History of 4 or more episodes of bacterial sinusitis within a 12-month period that were diagnosed by a physician

Your Treatment Plan

Please contact your chosen pharmacy directly to confirm when your medication is ready for pickup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is eligible for online treatment?

This service is available to adults ages 18–64 who meet the clinical criteria for treatment. If you are enrolled in Medicare, you may not use Zalud Health for medical services that are covered by your Medicare plan. Federal regulations limit our ability to provide these services to patients enrolled in this program. We recommend seeking care from a provider who participates in your health plan. Eligibility may also depend on your symptoms, medical history, and the severity of your condition. If online care isn’t appropriate for you, your provider will let you know and recommend the appropriate next steps.

How can a doctor evaluate a sinus infection without seeing me in person?

Our providers review a detailed medical intake form covering your symptoms, medical history, and any warning signs. With this information, they can determine whether online care is appropriate for you or if you need an in-person evaluation.

What kind of medications do you prescribe?

Depending on your symptoms and medical history, your provider may prescribe medications such as nasal sprays or, when appropriate, antibiotics. They may also recommend over-the-counter options to help relieve pressure, congestion, and inflammation.

How long does the service take?

A provider will review your medical intake within 4 hours, though it is often much faster.

How do I choose my pharmacy?

During the process, you’ll be able to search for and select the pharmacy that is most convenient for you. We can send electronic prescriptions to major pharmacy chains and many local independent pharmacies.

What if the doctor decides they can't treat me online?

Your safety is our priority. If your symptoms require an in-person evaluation, imaging, additional testing, or more immediate medical attention, your provider will let you know and recommend the appropriate next steps. If we determine that online care is not appropriate for you, your consultation fee will be refunded.

Can I use this service for my child?

No. Zalud currently offers this service only to adults ages 18–64. For anyone under 18, we recommend consulting a pediatrician.

Will this cover the cost of my medication?

The $39 fee covers your medical consultation, provider review, and treatment plan. It does not include the cost of medication at the pharmacy. You can use your insurance, a prescription discount card, or pay out of pocket at the pharmacy.

When do you offer refunds for online visits?

If your provider determines that you need to see a specialist or seek emergency care instead, we’re happy to provide a full refund for your visit.
