Flixonase Nasal Spray 50mcg: Relief for Allergies and Catarrh

Flixonase Nasal Spray is a metered-dose aqueous nasal spray containing Fluticasone Propionate (50 mcg per spray). It is a potent corticosteroid used to treat and prevent inflammation in the nasal passages. In Nigeria, it is a leading choice for managing persistent nasal symptoms caused by allergies.

What is Flixonase Used For?

This medication provides effective relief for:

• Allergic Rhinitis: Both seasonal (hay fever) and perennial (year-round) allergies.
• Chronic Catarrh: Relieving the stuffy, congested feeling often referred to as "catarrh" in Nigeria.
• Nasal Symptoms: Targeted relief for sneezing, itchy nose, runny nose, and sinus pressure.
• Nasal Polyps: Management of small growths in the nasal lining.

How It Works

Unlike standard decongestant sprays that provide temporary "rebound" relief, Flixonase treats the underlying inflammation. It is a non-drowsy formula that provides 24-hour relief.

Note: It may take 3 to 4 days of consistent use to reach its full therapeutic effect. Do not stop using it if you don't feel immediate relief.

Dosage and Administration

• Adults and Children over 12: Usually two sprays in each nostril once daily, preferably in the morning.
• Maintenance: Once symptoms are controlled, your doctor may reduce the dose to one spray per nostril.
• Consistency: Use it at the same time every day for the best results.

If you have questions about how to use this spray, you can contact a GoMed pharmacist for professional guidance.

• Prescription Required: Flixonase is a Prescription-Only Medicine (POM) in Nigeria.
• Storage: Store below 30°C. Do not freeze and keep protected from direct light.
