Budosonide nasal spray medication information
Medication Information: Budsonide nasal spray is used to prevent or alleviate rhinitis. Rhinitis is a disease in which the inside of the nose becomes inflamed and irritated. Common symptoms include sneezing, stuffy nose, runny nose and itchy nose. These symptoms are usually caused by allergies such as hay fever. Budesonide belongs to a group of drugs called corticosteroids. It relieves inflammation and swelling, as well as reduces itching, sneezing, burning and discomfort in rhinitis. Budesonide nasal spray is prescribed by a doctor. You can also buy smaller packages of this medicine without a prescription for the treatment of hay fever from pharmacies.
Budzonide nasal spray is also prescribed as a treatment for nasal polyps. A polyp is a small lump growing inside the nose that can cause symptoms similar to allergic rhinitis.
