Nasal steroids

A drug may be classified by the chemical type of the active ingredient or by the way it is used to treat a particular condition. Each drug can be classified into one or more drug classes.

Nasal corticosteroids are very effective in controlling allergic inflammation in the nose. Corticosteroids work on multiple cell types and mediators for example, mast cells, macrophages, leukotrienes and so on, to control inflammation. Nasal steroid sprays are usually first line treatment for nasal symptoms of hay fever or allergic rhinitis.
