No much side effects. Use saline nasal spray after using it regularly. Rule out underlying condition too. Consult

You can use it for 3-4 months in continuation. But get evaluated and treat the underlying issue so that you don’t need the spray lifelong

It's more about focusing on the issue rather than using it abruptly
Consult for better understanding of the situation and management

Prolonged use of intranasal steroids like fluticasone has its own risks and complications, so life long use is out of question. How long is the optimum duration for you depends on your symptoms and the disease.
