Experiencing nasal congestion? Beconase, containing beclomethasone dipropionate, offers targeted relief. This inhaler reduces inflammation in your nasal passages, easing symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and stuffiness.
Always follow your doctor’s instructions for dosage. Typically, adults use one or two sprays in each nostril once or twice daily. Children’s dosages vary significantly; consult a pediatrician for precise guidance. Proper technique is key: hold the inhaler upright, tilt your head slightly forward, and spray while gently inhaling.
Remember potential side effects, although uncommon, include nasal dryness, nosebleeds, and headache. If any reaction persists or worsens, seek medical attention immediately. This inhaler isn’t a cure-all; it manages symptoms. For persistent or severe congestion, a doctor should identify the underlying cause.
Beconase can interact with other medications. Inform your doctor about all your current prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, and supplements before starting treatment. Store the inhaler at room temperature, away from direct heat and moisture, ensuring it remains effective.
