Allergicasone 125/50 mcg nasal spray 140 grams

Description:

Allergicasone 125/50 mcg nasal spray is a prescription combination medicine used for fast and effective relief of allergic rhinitis symptoms. It contains azelastine, a potent antihistamine and mast cell stabilizer, together with fluticasone propionate, a corticosteroid with strong anti-inflammatory action. This dual-action nasal spray is designed to control sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion, itching, and related eye symptoms associated with seasonal and non-allergic rhinitis. The product delivers a precise dose per spray and is suitable for adults and adolescents as directed by a healthcare professional.

Indications:

• Symptomatic treatment of seasonal allergic rhinitis (hay fever), including sneezing, nasal itching, runny nose, nasal congestion, and postnasal drip.
• Symptomatic treatment of non-allergic (vasomotor) rhinitis.
• Relief of ocular symptoms associated with allergic rhinitis, such as itchy or watery eyes (symptomatic relief of ocular itching associated with allergic conjunctivitis).
• Management of moderate to severe nasal allergy symptoms when monotherapy with either an antihistamine or a corticosteroid alone is insufficient.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Azelastine hydrochloride – 125 mcg per actuation (spray) (exact concentration per spray based on product labeling; further concentration details are not available).
• Fluticasone propionate – 50 mcg per actuation (spray) (exact concentration per spray based on product labeling; further concentration details are not available).
• Excipients: The full list of inactive ingredients (such as preservatives, stabilizers, and solvents) is not available in the provided information. Refer to the package leaflet for complete excipient details.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. Do not exceed the prescribed dose.
• Typical adult and adolescent dosing (if not otherwise specified by your doctor): usually 1 spray in each nostril twice daily. Exact regimen should follow the official prescribing information and physician’s instructions.
• Blow your nose gently before use to clear the nasal passages.
• Shake the bottle well before each use.
• Prime the spray before first use or if it has not been used for several days, according to the package instructions (usually by spraying into the air until a fine mist appears).
• Administration steps:
  • Remove the protective cap.
  • Hold the bottle upright.
  • Insert the nozzle into one nostril while closing the other nostril with a finger.
  • Keep your head slightly tilted forward and breathe in gently through the nose while pressing down on the pump to release one spray.
  • Repeat in the other nostril if instructed.
• Do not spray into the eyes or mouth.
• Use at the same times each day for best control of symptoms.
• If you miss a dose, use it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose.
• Duration of use should be as recommended by your healthcare provider; do not use continuously for long periods without medical supervision.

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides rapid relief of nasal allergy symptoms by combining antihistamine and anti-inflammatory actions in one nasal spray.
• Reduces sneezing, runny nose, nasal itching, and congestion associated with seasonal and non-allergic rhinitis.
• Helps relieve ocular itching and discomfort linked to allergic conjunctivitis associated with rhinitis.
• Dual mechanism of action: azelastine blocks histamine receptors and stabilizes mast cells, while fluticasone propionate reduces local nasal inflammation and swelling.
• Targeted local nasal delivery minimizes systemic exposure compared with many oral allergy medicines.
• Convenient metered-dose spray allows accurate dosing and easy daily use.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity or allergy to azelastine, fluticasone propionate, or any of the excipients.
• Use with caution in patients with recent nasal surgery, nasal trauma, or active nasal ulcers; consult a doctor before use.
• Use with caution in patients with untreated local infections involving the nasal mucosa or respiratory tract, such as tuberculosis, fungal, bacterial, or viral infections.
• Long-term use of intranasal corticosteroids may increase the risk of systemic effects such as adrenal suppression, growth retardation in children and adolescents, glaucoma, or cataracts; regular medical follow-up is recommended.
• Avoid spraying directly into the eyes; if contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
• May cause drowsiness in some individuals due to the antihistamine component; use caution when driving or operating machinery until you know how the product affects you.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant or nursing, or if you are taking other medications, including other corticosteroids or antihistamines.
• Patients with chronic conditions such as severe liver disease, glaucoma, cataracts, immunosuppression, or severe asthma should seek medical advice before use.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease beyond the approved indications.
• Keep out of reach of children.

• Common side effects may include bitter taste in the mouth, mild nasal irritation or burning, sneezing, dry nose, headache, or throat irritation.
• Less common side effects can include nosebleeds (epistaxis), cough, nausea, or drowsiness.
• Rare but serious side effects may include severe allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling of face or throat, difficulty breathing), vision changes, persistent nosebleeds, or signs of infection (fever, persistent sore throat). Seek immediate medical attention if these occur.
