1. What Pirinase Allergy does
PIRINASE ALLERGY IS USED TO TREAT AND PREVENT THE ALLERGIC SYMPTOMS OF
HAYFEVER AND OTHER AIRBORNE ALLERGIES E.G. PET, HOUSE DUST MITE AND
MOULD
SPORE ALLERGIES. It relieves symptoms including sneezing, itchy and
watery eyes
and a runny, itchy or blocked-up nose, for up to 24 hours.
The active ingredient is fluticasone propionate, a corticosteroid
which, when
used every day, has an anti-inflammatory action and works in a similar
way to
natural body chemicals to control inflammation. This spray helps to
control
your body’s reactions to allergens (‘triggers’) in the
environment.
2. Check before you use Pirinase Allergy
DO NOT USE PIRINASE ALLERGY:
•
IF YOU HAVE EVER HAD AN ALLERGIC REACTION to fluticasone propionate or
to
any of the other ingredients (listed in Section 6).
•
if you are UNDER 18 YEARS.
TAKE SPECIAL CARE WITH PIRINASE ALLERGY
•
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Pirinase Allergy if you
have
an INFECTION in your nose or sinuses, if you have a HIGH TEMPERATURE
or you
have recently had SURGERY, an INJURY or ULCERS in your nose.
•
IF YOUR SYMPTOMS DO NOT IMPROVE, OR ARE NOT WELL CONTROLLED, AFTER 7
DAYS,
talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
•
Contact your doctor if you experience BLURRED VISION or other VISUAL
DISTURBANCES, which could be caused by conditions such as cataract or
glaucoma.
•
DO NOT USE CONTINUOUSLY FOR MORE THAN 3 MONTHS unless your doctor
