COMBINASE AQ – 1 NASAL SPRAY OF 7ML

COMBINASE AQ features a combination of Fluticasone Propionate, a corticosteroid that reduces nasal inflammation, and Azelastine, an antihistamine that alleviates allergic reactions. This dual-action nasal spray is designed to provide comprehensive relief from symptoms associated with allergic rhinitis, such as nasal congestion, sneezing, and a runny nose. Fluticasone Propionate works to decrease inflammation and swelling in the nasal passages, while Azelastine blocks histamine receptors, reducing the symptoms of allergies. The formulation offers a balanced approach to managing both nasal congestion and allergy symptoms.

Usage Instructions:

• Dosage: Use COMBINASE AQ as directed by your healthcare provider, generally 1-2 sprays in each nostril twice daily.
• Administration: Shake the bottle well before use. Clear your nasal passages before spraying. Insert the nozzle into your nostril and spray while gently inhaling.
• Consistency: Follow the prescribed dosage and schedule for optimal effectiveness. Do not exceed the recommended dose.

Medicinal Advantages:

• Comprehensive Relief: Provides dual-action relief from both nasal congestion and allergic reactions through a combination of a corticosteroid and an antihistamine.
• Extended Comfort: The formulation offers long-lasting symptom relief, reducing the need for frequent dosing.
• Effective Symptom Management: Targets multiple symptoms of allergic rhinitis, including nasal congestion, sneezing, and a runny nose.

Mechanism of Action:

Fluticasone Propionate, a corticosteroid, reduces inflammation in the nasal mucosa by binding to glucocorticoid receptors, which decreases the immune response and inflammation. Azelastine, an antihistamine, blocks histamine H1 receptors to prevent allergic reactions such as sneezing and itching. Together, these components work to relieve both the inflammatory and allergic symptoms associated with nasal congestion and rhinitis.

Off-Label Uses:

COMBINASE AQ may be used off-label for other conditions involving nasal inflammation and allergic symptoms as determined by a healthcare provider. Always consult with your healthcare provider for guidance on off-label uses.

1. Allergy Awareness: Be aware of any potential allergic reactions to Fluticasone Propionate or Azelastine. Discontinue use if severe symptoms occur.
