About Ezicas AZ Nasal Spray 7 ml
Ezicas AZ Nasal Spray 7 ml belongs to the class of medications called 'anti-allergic' primarily used to treat allergic symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, congestion, stuffy nose or watery eyes. An allergy is a condition that occurs when the immune system reacts to a foreign substance that is typically not harmful to your body. These foreign substances are known as ‘allergens.’ Allergic condition varies from person to person. Some might be allergic to certain foods and seasonal allergies like hay fever, pollen or pet dander. One of the main symptoms of allergy is cough, and it acts as a reflex action in the throat when there is any mucus or foreign irritant entry into the respiratory system.
Ezicas AZ Nasal Spray 7 ml is a combination of two drugs, namely: Fluticasone propionate (corticosteroid) and Azelastine hydrochloride (antihistamine/antiallergic). Fluticasone propionate belongs to the class of corticosteroids that works by acting inside the cells of the nasal lining and stopping the release of certain chemicals in the body that cause inflammatory reactions, thereby relieving sneezing, runny or blocked nose and sinus discomfort. On the other hand, Azelastine hydrochloride belongs to the class of antihistamines (anti-allergic drugs) that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. It helps to provide relief from symptoms of allergy such as sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, and congestion or stiffness.
