Steroclear 50 mcg nasal spray is a medication used to treat symptoms of allergic rhinitis, such as sneezing, runny or blocked nose, and itching. The active ingredient in Steroclear nasal spray is mometasone furoate, which belongs to a class of drugs called corticosteroids. Mometasone furoate works by reducing inflammation in the nasal passages, thereby relieving the symptoms of allergic rhinitis.
To use Steroclear nasal spray, shake the bottle gently before use. Blow your nose gently to clear your nasal passages, then insert the nozzle of the spray into one nostril while holding the other nostril closed with your finger. Tilt your head forward slightly and breathe in through your nostril while squeezing the spray bottle once. Breathe out through your mouth. Repeat the process for the other nostril.
Steroclear nasal spray is typically used once a day, or as directed by your doctor. It may take a few days of regular use to experience the full benefit of the medication. However, it is important to use Steroclear nasal spray only as directed, as overuse or misuse of the medication can lead to side effects such as nosebleeds, headache, and throat irritation. If you experience any unusual or persistent symptoms, contact your doctor.
