Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

Is it safe to use Zilfone nasal spray or Fluticasone Propionate aqueous nasal spray (Flomist) for a sinus infection while also managing chronic allergies?

Answered by Dr. Vidit Rohit Shah

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

For at least three months, it is recommended to use Fluticasone propionate nasal spray with one puff in each nostril twice daily. This dosage regimen is often effective in managing symptoms related to allergic rhinitis and chronic sinus issues. However, it's important to follow the specific instructions provided by your healthcare provider and to discuss any concerns or side effects that may arise during treatment.

Thanks
