Rhinocort Aqua is a nasal spray containing budesonide, a corticosteroid that reduces nasal inflammation. It effectively treats allergic and non-allergic rhinitis symptoms.
Dosage: Follow your doctor’s instructions precisely. Typical adult dosage is one or two sprays per nostril once or twice daily. Children’s dosages vary based on age and weight; consult your pediatrician.
Side Effects: While generally well-tolerated, some users report nasal dryness, burning, or irritation. Rarely, more serious side effects may occur. Consult your physician if you experience unusual symptoms.
How it Works: Budesonide reduces swelling and inflammation in the nasal passages, relieving congestion, sneezing, and itching. It doesn’t treat infection directly.
When to Use: Use Rhinocort Aqua for persistent allergy symptoms, such as hay fever or perennial rhinitis. It may also help manage non-allergic rhinitis.
Precautions: Inform your doctor about all medications you take, including over-the-counter drugs. Use caution if you have any underlying health conditions, especially fungal infections or tuberculosis. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their physician before use.
Storage: Store Rhinocort Aqua at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
