Hate to break it to you, but proper grammar is proper grammar. No comma. Period.

I used "nasal spray" as one would use an adjective. Were it "a powerful, colorful degongestant," the comma would be appropriate. Yes, it's correct to omit the comma if "nasal spray decongestant" is a noun, but it's also correct to use "nasal spray" as an adjective.

Not that "No comma" has a verb or "Period" has a subject, mind you.

Ah, the internet. Bickering about a comma in an image that has no value in the first place.

No comma. Period.

Why did I find this funny?

Also, I heard of an aspirin that... "May cause an increased frequency of bowel movements and inability to control them, stroke, heart attack, and in some cases, death."

Or maybe it was just an idea. Hmm, I dug it out of my memory...

Now all we need is a pain medication (Aleve, Advil, et al) whose side-effects include: "Headaches, ..."

Yeah, no comma. it's a nasal spray decongestant that happens to be powerful.

A degongestant that happens to be powerful and a nasal spray. That's my mode of logic. Screw semantics.

Not really, as there's no golden standard for grammar. There are all sorts of stylistic effects, such as omissions and additions and other such "rule breakers," that are perfectly acceptable.
