Product introduction

Ciclospray 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 your nose.

You should always use it as advised by your doctor but to get the full benefit you should take it regularly. It may take a few days for the spray to take full effect. If you don’t see an improvement in your symptoms after a week you should talk to your doctor.

The most common side effects of Ciclospray Nasal Spray include nasal irritation and sneezing. Talk to your doctor if you are worried about side effects or they do not go away. Using corticosteroids like Ciclospray Nasal Spray may make you more susceptible to viral infections, so you should stay away from people who have these infections. In general, you should try to avoid situations which make your symptoms worse (things like pollen and dust mites) and it is best not to smoke.

Uses of Ciclospray Nasal Spray

Benefits of Ciclospray Nasal Spray

In Treatment of Sneezing and runny nose due to allergies

Ciclospray Nasal Spray, when sprayed into your nose, will reduce swelling and irritation and relieve symptoms such as blocked or stuffy nose, sneezing, and itchy or watery eyes. It is less likely than some other medicines to cause high blood pressure or changes in your sodium or potassium levels. This medicine works in your nose to block the effects of substances like pollen, dust mites and mold that can trigger allergic reactions. This will make it easier for you to go about your daily activities without worrying so much about getting an allergic reaction. It may not work straight away, so use it regularly as prescribed to get the most benefit. If you see no improvement after a week, talk to your doctor.

Side effects of Ciclospray Nasal Spray

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

Common side effects of Ciclospray

  • Nasal irritation
  • Sneezing

How to use Ciclospray Nasal Spray

Quick tips

  • You have been prescribed Ciclospray Nasal Spray to help relieve symptoms of allergic rhinitis such as runny nose and sneezing.
  • The right way to use the nasal spray:
    • Shake the bottle before using the medicine. 
    • Clean your nose thoroughly before using the medicine.
    • Insert the bottle tip into one nostril and close the other nostril. 
    • Direct the spray towards the sides of your nostril, away from the cartilage dividing the two sides of your nose. 
    • Breathe out gently through your mouth and repeat the same process for the other nostril.
  • Avoid deep breathing as it will cause medication to go back to the throat and make it less effective.
  • Do not share the bottle with anyone else so that you do not spread germs.
  • Ciclospray Nasal Spray should be avoided in patients with recent nasal ulcers, nasal surgery, or nasal trauma.
  • Ciclospray Nasal Spray ‘dampens down’ inflammation in the lungs to provide long-term (maintenance) treatment of asthma and prevent disease progression.
  • Ciclospray Nasal Spray will not work for an ongoing asthma attack. Use your rescue inhaler to control sudden difficulty in breathing.
  • Learn the correct technique of using metered dose inhalers (MDI) and dry powder inhalers (DPI) to ensure that the right amount of medication reaches your lungs, and side effects are minimized.
  • Gargle with warm water after each inhalation to avoid any fungal infections in your mouth and throat.
  • Take it at the same time every day to prevent asthma attacks.
  • Do not open and close the cover unnecessarily as you will lose the medicine.
  • Never breathe out into the mouthpiece.
  • Only minuscule amounts of Ciclospray Nasal Spray may get absorbed into the bloodstream after inhalation. Hence, serious side effects such as weight gain are unlikely.
