  • Store at room temperature, away from heat and direct light. Keep all medicine away from children and never share your medicine with anyone. Ask your pharmacist, doctor, or health caregiver about the best way to dispose of any outdated medicine or medicine no longer needed.


How To Use
  • APPEARANCE: Powder Under Pressure, Spray, Solution. Your doctor will tell you how much of this medicine to use and how often.
  • Do not use more medicine or use it more often than your doctor tells you to. This medicine comes with patient instructions.
  • Read and follow these instructions carefully.
  • Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions. This medicine is for use only in the nose.
  • Do not get any of it in your eyes or on your skin.
  • If it does get on these areas, rinse it off right away. If you are using the nasal spray for the first time, you will need to prime the spray bottle.
  • To do this, first remove the safety clip and the cap from the bottle.
  • Then pump the bottle until some of the medicine sprays out.
  • Now it is ready to use.
  • Prime the spray after each time you clean the pump, or if you have not used the medicine for 7 days or longer. Shake the medicine bottle well before each use. Before using the medicine, gently blow your nose to clear your nostrils. Close one nostril by pressing your finger against the outside of it.
  • Place the tip of the spray bottle inside your other nostril and tilt your head forward a little.
  • Slowly breathe in through your open nostril.
  • At the same time, press down on the bottle to release a spray of the medicine into your nostril. Remove the tip of the bottle from your nose and breathe out through your mouth. Now you need to use the medicine in the other nostril.
  • Close the nostril you just sprayed by pressing your finger against the outside of it.
  • Place the tip of the spray bottle inside your other nostril and tilt your head forward a little.
  • Slowly breathe in through your open nostril.
  • At the same time, press down on the bottle to release a spray of the medicine into your nostril. Remove the tip of the bottle from your nose and breathe out through your mouth. After using the nasal spray in both nostrils, wipe the tip of the bottle with a clean tissue.
  • Then put the cap and safety clip back on the bottle. You may need to use this medicine for 1 to 2 weeks before you feel better.
  • Do not stop using it without first asking your doctor.
