Reviewers say the following about seaching for help to stop snoring:

  • Investigate claims carefully. Consumer magazines have asked various manufacturers of snoring "cures" for evidence to back up their claims; usually, none is forthcoming. Just because a website says its snoring remedy is "95 percent effective" is no reason to believe it's true.
  • Know when you need to see a doctor. If your snoring is so severe that you wake up numerous times during the night, you may have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a potentially serious condition. If you think you have OSA, make an appointment with a doctor immediately.
  • Decide if the cure is worse than the disease. It's up to you (or your spouse/partner) to judge if the discomfort of an internal or external nasal dilator is worth a slight reduction in snoring. If a snoring remedy is so uncomfortable that you can't sleep, you've just replaced one problem with another.
