Rhinolast is a nasal spray that helps relieve allergy symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, itchy or blocked nose, and post-nasal drip.
It works in two ways:
Azelastine – an antihistamine that blocks histamine (the chemical that triggers allergy symptoms).
Fluticasone – a corticosteroid that reduces swelling and inflammation inside the nose.
Together, they give strong relief from moderate to severe hay fever and year-round allergies caused by pollen, dust, pets, or moulds.
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you take:
HIV medicines (ritonavir, cobicistat)
Anti-fungal medicines (ketoconazole)
Any other prescription or over-the-counter medicines
These may increase side effects, so monitoring may be needed.
