Fluticasone propionate 50 mcg nasal spray primarily treats allergic rhinitis symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and nasal congestion. It’s also used to manage nasal polyps.
Studies show it significantly reduces nasal inflammation and improves symptoms in most patients. For allergic rhinitis, relief usually begins within a few days, with peak benefits observed after several weeks of consistent use.
For nasal polyposis, while it doesn’t shrink polyps completely, it can reduce their size and improve nasal breathing. Regular use is key for maintaining this improvement.
Dosage depends on the specific condition and patient’s response, always following a doctor’s prescription. Potential side effects include nosebleeds, nasal irritation, and headache; these are usually mild and temporary.
Remember to discuss any concerns or pre-existing health conditions with your physician before beginning treatment. They will help determine the suitability of fluticasone propionate for your individual needs.
