In some cases, two injections can be applied in each nostril two times a day (400 mcg per day) for a short time to achieve the control of the symptoms, after which the dose should be reduced.

A maximal daily dose is 400 mcg (no more than 4 injections in each nostril).

For the prevention and treatment of seasonal and all-year-round allergic rhinitis, one injection (50 mcg) in each nostril once per day, best in the morning.

Usage

Shake the container gently before each use. At the first use of the drug or after a break in its use for more than 1 week, it is necessary to check the serviceability of the spray: direct the tip away from you and make several pressings until a small cloudlet appears from the tip. Next, clean your nose (blow your nose thoroughly). Close one nostril and insert the tip into the other nostril. Tilt your head slightly forward, continuing to hold the bottle upright. Then you should start breathing in through your nose and, continuing to inhale, press once the canister with your fingers to spray the drug. Exhale through the mouth. Repeat the procedure a second time in the same nostril if necessary. Then repeat the above procedure completely by inserting the tip into the other nostril.

Side Effects

Nasal dryness/irritation, nausea, or even vomiting may take place. If any of these effects occurred, promptly consult your doctor.
