£18.99
Dymista Nasal Spray is a treatment for allergy symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy nose, blocked nose, and post-nasal drip.
It contains two active ingredients:
Azelastine – an antihistamine that blocks histamine (the chemical that causes allergic reactions).
Fluticasone – a corticosteroid that reduces swelling and inflammation in your nose.
Dymista is especially useful for people with moderate to severe hay fever (seasonal allergies) and year-round allergies like dust mites, pets, or mould, when a single medicine isn’t enough.
Tell your doctor if you take:
HIV medicines (ritonavir, cobicistat)
Antifungal treatments (ketoconazole)
Other prescription or over-the-counter medicines
These may increase Dymista’s side effects, so monitoring may be needed.
Adults and children 12+ years: One spray in each nostril morning and evening.
Children under 12: Not recommended.
