About Furamist AZ Nasal Spray

Furamist AZ Nasal Spray is used to treat allergic symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, congestion, and watery eyes. An allergy occurs when the immune system reacts to a foreign substance that is typically not harmful to your body. Allergic conditions vary from person to person.

Furamist AZ Nasal Spray is a combination of Fluticasone furoate and Azelastine hydrochloride. Fluticasone prevents the release of certain chemicals in the body that cause inflammatory reactions. Azelastine works by blocking the action of histamine, responsible for causing allergic reactions.

Some people may experience common side effects, such as headaches, changes in taste, or nosebleeds. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Furamist AZ Nasal Spray or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advised to inform your doctor before using Furamist AZ Nasal Spray . Furamist AZ Nasal Spray is not recommended for children below 6 years of age.

Uses of Furamist AZ Nasal Spray

  • Treat seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis: Furamist AZ Nasal Spray is primarily used to relieve nasal symptoms such as sneezing, runny or stuffy nose, nasal itching, and postnasal drip caused by allergies. It is effective for both short-term (seasonal) and long-term (perennial) allergic conditions.
  • Reduce nasal inflammation and allergic response: Furamist AZ Nasal Spray combines Fluticasone Furoate, a corticosteroid that suppresses inflammation, and Azelastine Hydrochloride, an antihistamine that blocks histamine release. Together, they reduce swelling, congestion, and allergic reactions in the nasal passages.
  • Improve breathing and overall nasal comfort: Furamist AZ Nasal Spray helps restore clear nasal airflow and reduces discomfort associated with allergic rhinitis, improving sleep quality and daily functioning.
