BENEFITS AND USES:

This medication helps to reduce inflammation in the nasal cavity, thereby relieving symptoms of allergic rhinitis, such as sneezing, itchy nose, blocked nose or runny nose.

DIRECTIONS:

This medication should be administered through the nostrils.

Do not take more or less than instructed by your doctor or pharmacist.

Prime the spray if it is new or unused for a few days. Shake it gently, and then administering exactly as directed by your doctor or according to the instructions on the label.

Steps to prepare:

5. If unused for more than 2 weeks, reprime by spraying until a clear and consistent mist appears.

Steps to administer:

2. Tilt your head slightly forward, keep the bottle upright and insert the spray into the other nostril.
