Nasonex
What is Nasonex ?
Nasonex is a prescription nasal spray that helps prevent seasonal and perennial (year-round) allergy symptoms in adults and children age 12 years and older. Nasonex provides maximum relief from allergy symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and nasal congestion without causing drowsiness.
Nasonex is a steroid. It prevents the release of substances in the body that cause inflammation.
Nasonex is used nasally to prevent and treat the nasal symptoms of allergies and other seasonal reactions.
Nasonex may also be used for other nasal conditions (e.g., swelling).
How to Use Nasonex
Shake Nasonex well before each use. Prime the spray pump as instructed by your pharmacist. Use Nasonex as directed, generally two sprays in each nostril daily. Do not use Nasonex more often or longer than prescribed. Use Nasonex regularly during the prescribed treatment period for full benefit. If Nasonex is used for seasonal allergy, Nasonex therapy is best started 2-4 weeks before the allergy season. Improvement in symptoms occurs generally within 2 days and full benefit occurs after 1-2 weeks of use.
