Azenate Nasal Spray 9.8ml

Azenate Nasal Spray is used for the following:

• Providing relief from seasonal allergic rhinitis: This condition includes symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and itchy nose due to exposure to allergens like pollen during certain seasons.

• Managing perennial allergic rhinitis: This refers to year-round allergies due to indoor allergens like dust mites and animal dander, leading to symptoms similar to seasonal allergies.

• Alleviating nasal congestion: It helps reduce the stuffiness or blockage in the nose, often a result of an allergic reaction.

To use Azenate Nasal Spray correctly, follow these steps:

• Shake the bottle gently before each use.

• Clear your nostrils by blowing your nose gently.

• Close one nostril and tilt your head forward slightly.

• Insert the spray tip into the other nostril, pointing it towards the side of your nose.

• Breathe gently through your nose while pressing down on the spray pump once.

• Breathe out through your mouth and repeat in the other nostril.

• Make sure not to inhale deeply while spraying to prevent the medication from going into your throat. Always consult your doctor for more specific advice.

Azenate Nasal Spray is administered nasally.

Azenate Nasal Spray comprises two main ingredients:

• Azelastine (140 mcg): An antihistamine that works by blocking histamine, a chemical released by your body during an allergic reaction. Histamine causes symptoms like sneezing, itching, watery eyes and runny nose. By preventing histamine from binding to receptors and exerting its effects, azelastine helps reduce these symptoms.

• Fluticasone propionate (50 mcg): A synthetic corticosteroid that has potent anti-inflammatory properties. It manages swelling and inflammation in the nasal passages by suppressing the release of substances that cause inflammation. This helps relieve nasal stuffiness and congestion. Fluticasone also makes your nasal passages less reactive to allergens.

The combination of an antihistamine and a corticosteroid in Azenate Nasal Spray provides comprehensive relief by targeting multiple pathways involved in an allergic response.

• Keep your Azenate Nasal Spray at a comfortable room temperature, ideally below 30°C.

• Shield it from light and dampness.

• Don't put it in the fridge or freezer.

• Make sure it's out of reach of children.

• If you're dealing with allergic rhinitis, avoid known allergens in your environment as much as possible, such as dust mites, pollen, and pet dander.

• Maintain a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables which can boost your immune system and help manage allergy symptoms better.
