Fluvent Nasal Spray 50 mcg/spray contains Fluticasone Propionate, a corticosteroid designed for nasal administration to relieve symptoms of allergic rhinitis and other inflammatory nasal conditions. It helps reduce inflammation, swelling, and irritation in the nasal passages, providing quick and long-lasting relief from congestion, sneezing, and runny nose.

Fluticasone Propionate works by inhibiting the release of inflammatory mediators, controlling allergy symptoms at their source. Fluvent Nasal Spray offers a convenient and effective treatment option with targeted nasal action, minimizing systemic exposure.
