What Is Flixonase Nasal Spray and How Does It Work?
Flixonase Nasal Spray, containing Fluticasone Propionate, is a corticosteroid medication used to relieve symptoms of allergic rhinitis, such as nasal congestion, sneezing, and a runny nose. It works by reducing inflammation in the nasal passages, helping to clear blocked nasal passages and improve airflow, making it easier to breathe.
Flixonase is effective in treating symptoms of allergies caused by pollen, dust mites, mold, and pet dander. By reducing inflammation and swelling in the nasal lining, it helps manage the symptoms of hay fever and other seasonal or perennial allergies.
How to Use Flixonase Nasal Spray
- Shake the Bottle: Before use, shake the bottle well to ensure the medication is properly mixed.
- Insert the Nozzle: Insert the nozzle of the spray into your nostril while keeping your head upright.
- Spray the Medication: Press down on the spray pump to release the recommended number of sprays into your nostril while inhaling gently through your nose.
- Repeat as Directed: Repeat for the other nostril, following the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
Always follow the instructions provided by your doctor or pharmacist for the correct dosage and technique to ensure optimal effectiveness of the nasal spray.
