Dymista Nasal Spray

Contains 2 active ingredients:  Azelastine Hydrochloride 125 mcg which is an antihistamine and Fluticasone Propionate 50 mcg which a type of medicine that reduces inflammation called a corticosteroid or steroid.

Azelastine works by preventing the actions of histamine - a substance produced by the body when it reacts to a foreign substance, such as pollen or pet fur (these are known as allergens). Histamine causes a chain reaction that results in allergic symptoms such as itchy eyes, sneezing and a runny nose. Azelastine blocks histamine receptors and so stops this chain reaction.

Fluticasone is absorbed into the cells of the nasal lining and works by stopping these cells from releasing chemicals that trigger allergic and inflammatory reactions. It relieves symptoms such as a blocked or runny nose, sneezing and sinus discomfort. It can also help relieve associated eye symptoms like red, itchy and watery eyes.

The azelastine starts relieving nasal symptoms within 15 minutes of using the nasal spray. However, it can take a few days for the fluticasone to build up to its full effect.
