Allegra Nasal Spray is a steroid. It relieves the symptoms of allergic rhinitis such as runny nose, sneezing and sinus discomfort. It works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers that cause inflammation (swelling) and allergies, thus relieving the discomfort and irritation in the nose.
Common side effects of Allegra
Nasal discomfort
Nosebleeds
Headache
Nasal inflammation
Hence throat can feel little dry.
Next Steps
Have plenty of water.
Check if dryness is due to side effect of medicine or it is some mild initial infection of throat.
