What is Fluticasone Nasal Spray and what is it used for:
Fluticasone nasal spray is a medication used to treat symptoms of allergic and non-allergic rhinitis, such as runny nose, sneezing, and congestion. It works by reducing inflammation in the nasal passages. Fluticasone nasal spray is also used to prevent nasal polyps and treat symptoms of sinusitis.
How to use Fluticasone Nasal Spray:
Fluticasone nasal spray is used in the nose, usually once or twice a day, or as directed by your healthcare provider. Shake the bottle well before using it. Remove the cap and prime the spray pump before the first use or if the spray has not been used for more than 7 days. Tilt your head forward slightly and insert the nozzle into one nostril while closing the other nostril with your finger. Breathe in gently through your nose and press down on the spray pump. Repeat these steps for the other nostril. After using the spray, wipe the nozzle with a clean tissue and replace the cap.
