NASACORT INFORMATION

About Nasacort

Nasacort is a nasal steroid that works directly on nasal tissue to reduce swelling and inflammation. Nasacort is used to treat nasal itching, runny nose, postnasal drip, nasal congestion and sneezing associated with allergic rhinitis.

How to take Nasacort

Make sure you understand how to use the nasal spray properly before using Nasacort.

Shake well before using. Nasacort must reach the nasal tissue to be effective. Therefore, blow your nose to clear the nasal passage before using Nasacort. If passages are blocked, a nasal decongestant may be used first (for a maximum of 3 to 5 days) to open the passages allowing proper penetration of Nasacort.

Be sure to aim spray away from the middle of the nose, that is, away from the nasal septum and toward the inflamed areas inside the nasal passages. Use exactly as prescribed.

Nasacort must be used routinely to be effective.

Do not increase your dose of Nasacort or use it more frequently than directed without your doctor's approval.

It may take a few days before the full benefits of are noticed. If, after 2 to 3 weeks of using Nasacort no improvement in symptoms is noticed, consult your doctor.

Use Nasacort with caution if sores or injuries are present in the nasal passages.

Nasacort Side effects

Nasacort may cause irritation, stinging, burning, or dryness of the nasal passages. Sneezing, nosebleed, headache, lightheadedness, loss of taste, throat irritation or nausea may also occur. If these effects continue or become bothersome, inform your doctor.

Unlikely but report promptly: persistent nose or throat irritation/soreness, white patchy areas. Very unlikely but report promptly: broken or damaged nasal membranes, unusual weakness, weight loss, nausea/vomiting, fainting, dizziness, vision changes.

If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Precautions

Nasacort should be used with caution if the following medical conditions exist: glaucoma, herpes-type infection of the eye, infection, recent nasal surgery or existing nasal sores, liver disease, tuberculosis, underactive thyroid, allergies to corticosteroids.

Though very unlikely, it is possible Nasacort will be absorbed into your bloodstream. This may have undesirable consequences that may require additional corticosteroid treatment. This is especially true for children and for those who have used this for an extended period if they also have serious medical problems such as serious infections, injuries or surgeries. This precaution applies for up to one year after stopping use of this drug. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more details.

Caution is advised in children as Nasacort may affect growth patterns.

Nasacort should be used only when clearly needed during pregnancy. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. It is unknown if this form of triamcinolone is excreted into breast milk. Other dosage forms of triamcinolone are excreted into breast milk. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
