Beclometasone helps relieve constant runny nose, sneezing and itching associated with allergic rhinitis, non-allergic seasonal rhinitis, and common cold.
Use Beclometasone exactly as directed by your doctor or according to the instructions on the label. Do not use more or less than instructed by your doctor.
If you are using Beclometasone nasal spray for the first time, remove the cap and press the pump a few times until you produce an even spray. If you have not used the spray for a few days, press the pump twice or more to get an even spray before using it.
To use the nasal spray, follow these steps:
- Blow your nose gently to clean your nostrils before using the spray.
- Shake the bottle well.
- Close one nostril with your finger. Hold the pump straight and upright, placing the spray tip into the other nostril.
- Spray into the nostril and breathe in gently. Keep your head slightly tilted forward while holding the bottle vertically upright. Do not tilt your head backwards during or after using the spray.
- If more than one dose is required for each nostril, alternate the sprays between nostrils.
- After each use, wipe and cap the nasal spray.
Make sure you know how to use your nasal spray. If you have problems or do not understand the instructions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Do not share your nasal spray with others as it could spread infection.
Use the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and return to your normal dosing schedule.
DO NOT double a dose under any circumstances.
If you often forget to use your medicine, let your doctor and pharmacist know.
