Pseudoephedrine is an alpha agonist used to treat nasal congestion and sinus pressure. It works by restricting the blood vessels in the nose and sinuses. It doesn't require a prescription, but there are restrictions on its purchase and it is only available at the pharmacy counter. Brand name Sudafed is available, and phenylephrine (Sudafed PE) is another over-the-counter alternative with a different active ingredient that has no restrictions.
