There are medications that dry up your mucus membranes to avoid that situation. I can't remember the names but maybe a search would turn something up. I heard an interview on the radio yesterday that mentioned them. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use them too much though.
Just looked it up and one compound is Allium cepa, and there appear to be more, probably along the lines of an anti-hystamine.
