Description

What is Avamis Nasal Spray?

Avamys nasal spray is a medication that is primarily used to treat inflammation of the mucous membrane and nose. It is also used to treat seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis in adults and children above six years.

Avamys nasal spray is a corticosteroid treatment designed to alleviate symptoms of hay fever and other allergies. It works by decreasing inflammation in the nasal passages, providing relief from nasal congestion, sneezing, and itching. The medication is suitable for adults and children aged 6 years and over. Avamys starts working within 8 hours, with the full effect being noticeable within 7 to 10 days of consistent use.

How Does Avamys Nasal Spray Work?

Allergic rhinitis is an allergic response to harmful allergens that congest the nose and cause itching, sneezing, or sore throats. Some of the harmful allergens are caused by pollen from trees, insects, moulds, pet dander among others. When harmful allergens are inhaled through the nose or mouth, the body reacts by releasing histamine, a natural chemical that responds to the foreign elements and fights them. In the process, histamine causes allergic symptoms and reactions such as a runny or blocked nose. Avamys works by blocking the production of histamine and relieving the inflammation, discomfort and irritation that they cause.

It is used to treat seasonal allergic rhinitis, asthma, bacterial sinusitis, chronic sinusitis, and Perennial Allergic Rhinitis (PAR).

  • Inform your doctor of any allergic reactions you experience

Directions

You must take Avamys exactly as directed by your doctor or read the information on the product label.

  • Shake the bottle thoroughly before use.
  • Prime the spray by pointing the nozzle far from anyone, then pump down the actuator until you get a fine spray, especially if the spray has not been used for some time.
  • Gently blow your nose to clear the nostrils.
  • Position your head in a comfortable position, close one nostril and insert the nasal applicator into the open nostril, breathe while pressing the collar of the nasal applicator and release the spray.
  • Breathe out through the mouth and repeat the process on the other nostril.
  • Follow the dose instruction given by your doctor to get optimum results.

For adults and children over 12 years, the recommended dose is two sprays in each nostril once daily. Once symptoms are under control, reduce to one spray per nostril daily. For children aged 6-11 years, one spray in each nostril once daily is typically sufficient.

3. Can Avamys be used during pregnancy?
