Hi, I am Dr. Atul Kumar Nimawat MS ENT.
Duonase nasal spray contains a combination of an intranasal corticosteroid (Fluticasone) and an antihistamine (Azelastine). It is generally prescribed for allergic rhinitis or nasal inflammation where dual action (anti-inflammatory + anti-allergic) is needed.
Duration of Use: It can be used safely for 2–4 weeks under medical supervision. For longer durations (like 1 month or more), regular follow-up is essential to monitor for any side effects like nasal dryness, irritation, or, rarely, mucosal thinning.
