Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray is used to treat allergic symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, congestion, stuffy nose or watery eyes. It contains Fluticasone and Azelastine, which work by acting inside the nasal lining cells and stopping the release of certain chemicals in the body that cause inflammatory reactions, thereby relieving sneezing, runny or blocked nose, and sinus discomfort. Also, it blocks histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Some people may experience side effects such as headaches, taste changes or nose bleeds. Before using this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.

About Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray

Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray is used to treat allergic symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, congestion, stuffy nose or watery eyes. An allergy is a condition that occurs when the immune system reacts to a foreign substance. These foreign substances are known as 'allergens.' Allergic condition varies from person to person. Some might be allergic to certain foods and seasonal allergies like hay fever, pollen or pet dander. One of the main symptoms of allergy is cough, which acts as a reflex action in the throat when there is any mucus or foreign irritant entering the respiratory system.

Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray is a combination of two drugs: Fluticasone (corticosteroid) and Azelastine (antihistamine/antiallergic). Fluticasone belongs to the class of corticosteroids that works by acting inside the nasal lining cells and stopping the release of certain chemicals in the body that cause inflammatory reactions, thereby relieving sneezing, runny or blocked nose, and sinus discomfort. On the other hand, Azelastine belongs to the class of antihistamines (antiallergic drugs) that works by blocking histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. It helps relieve allergy symptoms such as sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, congestion, or stiffness. Together, both of them effectively treat allergic symptoms.

Take Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray as advised by your doctor by spraying towards the sides of nostrils. Your doctor will recommend how often you take Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray based on your medical condition. Some people may experience headaches, taste changes or nose bleeds. Most of these side effects of Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Inform your doctor if you are allergic to Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray or any other medicines, are pregnant or breastfeeding before using Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray. Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray is not recommended for children below six years of age. If you experience vision changes, tiredness, nausea, vomiting, light-headedness, chills, fever, body pains, sores, redness or white patches in the mouth or throat, runny nose, severe nosebleeds, or increased drowsiness, stop taking Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray and consult a doctor immediately. Avoid contact with people who have infections or are sick, as the Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray may weaken the immune system, causing infections easily. If you have chickenpox, measles, tuberculosis, surgery or injury on the nose, glaucoma, cataracts, herpes infection of eyes, ulcers, or sores inside the nose, inform your doctor before taking Flutizen AZ Nasal Spray.
