About Freeair AZ Nasal Spray

Freeair 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 that is typically not harmful to your body. These foreign substances are known as ‘allergens.’ Allergic condition varies from person to person. Some might be allergic to certain foods, pollen or pet dander. 

Freeair AZ Nasal Spray is a combination of two drugs: Fluticasone furoate (corticosteroid) and Azelastine hydrochloride (antihistamine/antiallergic). Fluticasone furoate prevents the release of certain chemicals in the body that cause inflammatory reactions. On the other hand, Azelastine hydrochloride works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Together, Freeair AZ Nasal Spray provides relief from allergic symptoms.
