Beconase AQ Description

Are you bothered by nasal allergies? Tired of a runny nose, sneezing, and sinus discomfort? Talk to a doctor about a prescription to buy Beconase AQ or generic Beclomethasone Aq for relief from these symptoms. Beconase AQ is a corticosteroid medication in an aqueous spray that helps decrease the nasal inflammation that occurs when coming into contact with pollen, dust mites, pet dander, smoke, and other irritants that trigger the allergic response. The generic alternative is not manufactured by the company that makes the brand product.

How Does Beconase AQ Work?

When an allergen is inhaled, your immune system detects a foreign particle that may be harmful. The cells inside your nose release chemicals that are meant to stop and isolate this intruder to protect you. In this case, antibodies attach to mast cells in the nasal mucous and histamine is released and causes swollen membranes and dilated blood vessels. This causes sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, or your nose become blocked as histamine tries to ‘wash out’ the intruder. Beconase AQ blocks the release of these chemicals and allows you to breathe easier.

Conditions Treated by Beconase AQ

Because Beconase AQ may not be very effective right away, it’s best to start using it a few days before the possibility of coming into contact with an indoor or outdoor allergen. Use Beconase AQ regularly to keep inflammation in check for year-round allergies.

Your doctor may be recommended Beconase AQ to use as directed after the removal of nasal polyps to prevent them from returning. These are soft, noncancerous growths that can appear on the lining of nasal passages or sinuses and are caused by allergies, recurring infections, or chronic inflammation from asthma.

Before Beconase AQ is Prescribed

To determine if Beconase AQ is the right medication for you, tell the doctor about other medical conditions or allergies you have and list any current over the counter or prescription drugs you take or use, including herbal remedies and dietary or vitamin supplements. Ask your doctor about any health risks if you use Beconase AQ while you are pregnant, may become pregnant, or are breast feeding.

Beconase AQ Proper Use and Recommendations

Although there is a low amount of the corticosteroid absorbed into your bloodstream, your doctor may recommend to only use Beconase AQ or Beclomethasone Aq generic as needed or prescribe the lowest effective dose for continued use throughout the year. Keep all medications out of children’s reach and never share these products with anyone else.
