I am not a Doctor ,but I have had problem with excessive mucus production for past year or so .I found that Pseudoephedrine (Sudafed) helps but today I took some Goldenseal mixed with Echinacea  (be sure to source this from reputable
supplier and also check with your Doctor before taking in case interacts with other drugs or problems)  . I took for first time this morning and can say that with few hours my mucus has normalised and I am no longer spending all my time clearing my throat. This was very profound and noticeable effect but is too early to say whether it will clear all the problem for good.   Anyway for anyone with
excess mucus I would highly suggest trying Goldenseal either on its own or mixed with Echinacea  ,but make sure is good bona fide supplier (try www.naturesbest.co.uk)   If it works please post update and let everyone know.

First, be sure you have taken “everything there is medicine wise,” including an inhaled nasal steroid.  Then try nasal rinses (also referred to as nasal washes) with normal saline, 2-3 times a day.  Also, if you know of any allergens, in addition to the house dust mites, that make your rhinitis worse, do whatever is necessary to rid your environment of those allergens.  That includes the usual precautions to eradicate the mites-removal of carpets, drapes, upholstered furniture, quilts on your bed, very hot water washing of all bedding,  (In general the application of substances to carpets to destroy mites is not very effective), animal dander (even from an animal of a previous owner or inhabitant of your dwelling) and cockroach.

Good luck
