Product introduction
Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray is a combination medicine used in the treatment of allergy symptoms, such as runny nose, stuffy nose, sneezing, watery eyes, and congestion or stuffiness.
Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray should be used as advised by your doctor. Do not use it more often or for longer than recommended. Normally you should blow your nose gently before using it, keep one nostril closed while applying the medicine into the other, and then sniff hard to make sure it reaches deep into the nose. Then repeat for the other nostril. It provides relief very quickly and can last for several hours. If you use this medicine too often or for too long, it may worsen your symptoms rather than improve them. It is also beneficial to have plenty of fluids while taking this medication.
The most common side effects are taste change, nosebleeds, and headaches. Most of these are temporary and usually resolve with time. Contact your doctor straight away if you are at all concerned about any of these side effects.
Never support self-medication or recommend your medicine to another person. Before you start taking this medicine it is important to inform your doctor if you are suffering from liver or kidney disease. You should also tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.

Use this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Insert the bottle tip into one nostril and close the other nostril.

How Furamist Nasal Spray works
Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray is a combination of two medicines. Fluticasone furoate inhibits an enzyme (cytosolic phospholipase A2) that triggers a series of reactions involved in the production of inflammatory mediators, such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes. Dilated blood vessels can cause nasal congestion. Oxymetazoline is a decongestant that shrinks blood vessels in the nasal passages.

FAQs
What is Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray used for?
Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray is used to treat allergic rhinitis (hay fever) with moderate-to-severe nasal congestion. It provides relief from symptoms like a blocked or stuffy nose, sneezing, a runny nose, and sinus pressure.
How is Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray administered, and why is the nasal route effective?
Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray is a nasal spray applied directly into the nostrils. This topical route delivers the medicine right where it is needed, providing fast, local action in the nasal passages with minimal absorption into the rest of the body.
I have heard you should not use decongestant sprays for more than few days. Is that true for this Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray?
While that is true for most decongestant-only sprays due to the risk of rebound congestion (worsening stuffiness), studies on combination products present in Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray show it can be used safely for longer periods (e.g., up to 28 days) because the fluticasone (a steroid) in Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray helps prevent that from happening. However, the dose and duration are solely advised by your doctor based on your condition and severity.
How quickly can I expect relief from a severely blocked nose after using Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray?
You can expect relief from nasal congestion within a few minutes after using Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray. The full benefits may take longer.
When is Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray a better option than a regular steroid-only nasal spray?
Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray is particularly useful when a steroid-only nasal spray alone is not enough to control your stuffy nose. It is formulated for those with moderate-to-severe congestion that significantly impacts their daily life and sleep.
Can Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray help me sleep better?
By providing effective and long-lasting relief from nasal congestion, Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray can significantly improve sleep quality for people whose allergies or stuffiness keep them awake at night.
Can I stop using Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray as soon as I feel better?
For best results, you should complete the full course of Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray treatment as prescribed by your doctor. Stopping early may cause your symptoms to return.
Will Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray cause nosebleeds or dryness?
Some users may experience mild dryness or irritation in the nose after using Furamist Oxy Nasal Spray. To minimize this, ensure you are using the correct spray technique and not aiming the nozzle directly at the nasal septum (the wall between your nostrils).
