Fluticasone Propionate

Description
Flonaspray is a nasal spray developed by Square Pharmaceuticals Limited, containing Fluticasone Propionate at a concentration of 50mcg per spray. It is designed to manage and alleviate allergic rhinitis symptoms, both seasonal and perennial, with powerful anti-inflammatory effects on the nasal mucosa and minimal systemic absorption, enhancing its safety profile.

Benefits
Flonaspray relieves the symptoms of allergic rhinitis by reducing inflammation in the nasal passages. Its targeted action helps decrease nasal congestion, sneezing, and itching, improving comfort and breathing quality without significant systemic side effects.

Ingredients
Each spray of Flonaspray delivers 50mcg of Fluticasone Propionate, the active ingredient responsible for its anti-inflammatory and therapeutic effects. It is specially formulated for nasal application to optimize local relief and minimize systemic effects.

Uses and Doses
For adults and children over 12 years: 2 sprays in each nostril once daily, preferably in the morning, or twice daily if necessary, with a maximum of 4 sprays per day.
For children aged 4-11: Apply one spray to each nostril once daily, not exceeding four sprays daily. Due to limited clinical data, this product is not recommended for children with perennial rhinitis.

Side Effects
Flonaspray may cause mild side effects, including nasal and throat dryness, an altered sense of taste or smell, and occasional nosebleeds. Due to its localized application, systemic side effects are less likely and unlikely.

How to Use
Shake the bottle gently before each use. Insert the nozzle into one nostril and spray while gently inhaling through the nose. Repeat for the other nostril as per the recommended dosing instructions. Avoid blowing your nose immediately after application.

Pregnancy & Lactation
There are no adequate and controlled studies in pregnant women, so use should be limited to cases where the benefits outweigh potential risks. It is unknown if Fluticasone Propionate is excreted in breast milk.

Precautions and Warnings
Flonaspray should be used cautiously in patients with a history of glaucoma, cataracts, or other respiratory conditions. Rare cases of nasal septum perforation and increased intraocular pressure have been reported. Patients should also know the potential for wheezing or asthma-like symptoms following intranasal corticosteroid administration.

Safety Information
Avoid using Flonaspray if you have a known hypersensitivity to Fluticasone Propionate or its components. Ensure the spray is administered as directed and not overused to prevent potential adverse effects.

Indications
Flonaspray is indicated for treating and preventing seasonal allergic rhinitis (such as hay fever) and perennial rhinitis, offering effective symptom control for various allergy seasons.

Pharmacology
Fluticasone Propionate reduces inflammatory mediator cells like basophils, eosinophils, leukocytes, and mast cells within the nasal epithelium. This reduces sensory nerve response, secretory reactions, and capillary permeability, minimizing inflammatory symptoms in the nasal passages.

Therapeutic Class
Nasal Steroid Preparations, Fluocinolone & Combination Preparations

Storage Conditions
Store in a cool, dry place away from light and moisture. To avoid accidental use, keep out of the reach of children.
