It is safe for an 8 year old to take medication for nasal congestion but
what works is sudafed which you have to request from the pharmacist who
keeps it behind the counter. For an 8 year old you would need 15mg of
sudafed every four hours for congestion. You could also try vicks
vaporub on his chest.
