About Azecool Nasal Spray 70 mdi

Azecool Nasal Spray 70 mdi belongs to the class of medications called 'anti-allergic' primarily used to treat allergic symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, congestion, stuffy nose, or watery eyes. An allergy is a condition that occurs when the immune system reacts to a foreign substance that is typically not harmful to your body. These foreign substances are known as ‘allergens.’ Allergic condition varies from person to person. Some might be allergic to certain foods and seasonal allergies like hay fever, pollen, or pet dander. One of the main symptoms of allergy is cough, and it acts as a reflex action in the throat when there is any mucus or foreign irritant entry into the respiratory system.

Azecool Nasal Spray 70 mdi is a combination of two drugs, namely: Fluticasone propionate (corticosteroid) and Azelastine (antihistamine/antiallergic). Fluticasone propionate belongs to the class of corticosteroids that works by acting inside cells of the nasal lining and stops the release of certain chemicals in the body that cause inflammatory reactions thereby relieving sneezing, runny or blocked nose, and sinus discomfort. On the other hand, Azelastine belongs to the class of antihistamines (anti-allergic drugs) that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions.  It helps to provide relief from symptoms of allergy such as sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, and congestion or stiffness.

Use Azecool Nasal Spray 70 mdi as prescribed. Your doctor will recommend how often you take Azecool Nasal Spray 70 mdi based on your medical condition. Some people may experience headache, taste changes, or nose bleeds. Most of these side effects of Azecool Nasal Spray 70 mdi do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Azecool Nasal Spray 70 mdi or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advised to inform your doctor before using Azecool Nasal Spray 70 mdi. Azecool Nasal Spray 70 mdi is not recommended for children below 6 years of age. If you experience any changes in vision, tiredness, nausea, vomiting, light-headedness, chills, fever, body pains, sores, redness or white patches in the mouth or throat, runny nose, severe nosebleeds, or increased drowsiness, stop taking Azecool Nasal Spray 70 mdi and consult a doctor immediately. Avoid contact with people who have infections or who are sick as Azecool Nasal Spray 70 mdi may weaken the immune system causing infections easily. If you have chickenpox, measles, tuberculosis, surgery or injury on the nose, glaucoma, cataracts, herpes infection of the eyes, ulcers or sores inside the nose, inform your doctor before taking Azecool Nasal Spray 70 mdi.
