Pharmacological effect

Nazarel is a glucocorticoid of local action, when used in recommended dosages it removes inflammation and excessive puffiness, shows antihistaminic properties. Anti-inflammatory effect is achieved due to the interaction of the main active substance of the drug with the special receptors of SCS.

Fluticasone is able to inhibit the proliferation of lymphocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils, macrophages, and mast cells. In this case, there is a decrease in the production and isolation of mediators of the inflammatory process, as well as other biologically active components (eg, PG, cytokines, RT, gimatine) during the early or late stage of allergy manifestation.

Antiallergic effect is observed after 2-4 hours from the date of use of the spray. This significantly reduces the sensation of itching in the nasal cavity, eliminates the manifestation of rhinitis and sneezing, the nasal passages become blocked, the general condition of the patient becomes easier. The use of glucocorticoids reduces tearing of the eyes, associated with allergic rhinitis. The duration of the nasal spray lasts for one day after irrigation of the nasal passages.

Reviews

  1. Nadia. I suffer from allergic rhinitis, which is manifested due to dust. I tried a lot of drugs, even the vaunted Nazarel, but he did not fit me.

  2. Dasha. With vasomotor rhinitis, only Nazarel helps me, nothing more. I dream to do without him somehow, but it's hard to live with a swollen nose, and every winter I buy ...
  3. Olga. I almost use Nazarel a month. The nose did not breathe as it did not breathe! The diagnosis is a stored allergic rhinitis, although I do not know where it comes from, if after SARS ceased to breathe!!! Maybe a fake?
