Furamist AZ Nasal Spray – Fluticasone Propionate & Azelaic Acid for Nasal Allergy Relief
Product Description: Furamist AZ Nasal Spray combines two powerful active ingredients—fluticasone propionate (50 mcg per spray) and azelaic acid (0.1%)—to provide effective relief from nasal allergies and congestion. The fluticasone propionate, a corticosteroid, helps reduce inflammation in the nasal passages, alleviating symptoms like nasal congestion, sneezing, and runny nose commonly caused by allergic reactions. Azelaic acid, an antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory agent, further reduces inflammation and helps fight potential bacterial or fungal infections, ensuring long-term nasal health.
This dual-action formulation provides comprehensive relief from nasal allergy symptoms, promoting better nasal health by addressing both inflammation and microbial issues.
