How Does It Work?

• Fluticasone furoate: Reduces inflammation in the nose. It helps reduce swelling, redness, and mucus production, thereby relieving nasal congestion, sneezing, and a blocked or runny nose caused by allergies.
• Azelastine hydrochloride: Works by blocking the action of histamine, a chemical released during allergic reactions. This helps quickly relieve symptoms like sneezing, itching, a runny nose, and nasal irritation.

Interactions with other medicines

• Using Azenate nasal spray with medicines like ritonavir or cobicistat can greatly increase steroid levels in the body and may cause side effects such as weight gain, facial swelling, or hormone imbalance.
• Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (such as ketoconazole) may slightly increase steroid exposure, so caution is advised when used together.
• Some medicines like erythromycin usually cause little or no meaningful interaction, but monitoring may still be needed.
