Austril 27.5 mcg Nasal Spray 6 gm

Your doctor may prescribe Austril 27.5 mcg Nasal Spray 6 gm to help manage the following conditions:

• Allergic Rhinitis (Seasonal and Perennial): Austril 27.5 mcg Nasal Spray 6 gm helps by reducing swelling, irritation, and mucus production in the nasal passages, providing relief from sneezing, congestion, and a runny nose caused by outdoor or indoor allergens.
• Nasal Polyps: Austril 27.5 mcg Nasal Spray 6 gm helps by decreasing the size of small, non-cancerous growths on the lining of your nasal passages, which helps clear blockages and improves your breathing.

When used as directed as part of your treatment plan, this medicine may provide the following benefits:

• Targeted Local Relief: This nasal spray provides targeted, localised relief directly inside your nasal passages where your allergy symptoms start.
• Low Risk of Drowsiness: Because the medicine works locally inside the nose, very little of it enters the rest of your body, meaning it is highly unlikely to cause the drowsiness often associated with oral allergy tablets.
• Controls Inflammation for Lasting Relief: Using the spray consistently helps control the underlying inflammation in your nasal lining. This leads to clearer breathing throughout the day and night, helping you sleep better and perform your daily tasks without the constant distraction of allergy symptoms.

• It is usually used once daily; however, follow your doctor’s instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication for effective results.
• Insert the tip of the bottle into a nostril while closing the other nostril and spray towards the sides of the nostril. Keep your head straight and breathe gently. Repeat the same process for another nostril if needed.
• Before using the nasal spray, clean your nose by gently blowing over a handkerchief or tissue.

• Keep Indoor Air Clean: Keep your indoor air clean by using an air purifier equipped with a HEPA filter to capture microscopic dust, pollen, and pet dander.
• Reduce Dust Mite Exposure: Wash your bedsheets and pillowcases weekly in hot water to minimise exposure to dust mites.
• Drink Plenty of Water: Stay well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water, which helps keep your nasal membranes moist and supports healthy sinus function.
• Avoid Tobacco and Wood Smoke: Avoid exposure to tobacco smoke and wood smoke, as these irritants can worsen nasal inflammation and decrease the effectiveness of your nasal spray.

• Prime Before First Use: Prime the spray pump before using it for the first time, or if you have not used it for a week or longer, by spraying it away from your face into the air until a fine mist appears.
• Avoid Sharing: Never share your nasal spray bottle with anyone else, as sharing nasal applicators can easily spread infections.
• Use the Correct Spray Technique: Always aim the nozzle away from the middle wall (septum) of your nose to prevent irritation, bleeding, or potential damage to the nasal tissue.
• Clean the Nozzle Regularly: Clean the spray tip at least once a week by removing the plastic cap, pulling the nozzle off, and rinsing it under warm tap water. Let it dry completely at room temperature before putting it back together.
• Long-Term Use Monitoring: Contact your healthcare provider for a routine nasal examination if you need to use this medicine continuously for several months.
