Question 1

is it okay if i take a nasal allergy medication with my asthma medication?

thanks!

Accepted Answer

Yes: Although they are both similar medications that do similar things, the delivery systems tend to make them work better for either the upper or lower respiratory system, not both at the same time. They are most often used together

Question 2

what can you do for nasal inflamation ( congestion) outside
of common allergy medication. nasal sprays don't agree with
me, sinus rinses don't help. ?

Accepted Answer

Have you been tested: Nasal congestion can be allergic or nonallergic. If you are allergic, you have lots of options, like avoiding triggers, different prescription allergy meds, or even allergy shots. You need to be allergy tested to see if any these can help. If you are nonallergic, then the best medicines are nasal sprays, although decongestants like pseudo Ephedrine can help.

Question 3

i have nasal allergy and always suffering from asthma i take some medications but all in vain if there is any treatment i need a medication name..

Accepted Answer

See Doctor: There are a variety of medications for acute care and control, but this needs a live discussion with your doctor.

Question 4

i want a treatment or medication name for nasal allergy i develop asthma multiple times a day and discharge from nose?

Accepted Answer

Check with your doc: Nasal steroid is the gold standard for treatment. Your asthma is uncontrolled and you must see a lung doc. You will probably need inhaled steroids or more inhaled steroids. Asthma can be controlled and cured in 2013. Montelukast may be useful. Ask your doc about it.

Question 5

saline nasal allergy spray called asteoto. it's main ingredient is azelastine hcl. could that show up on my drug test?

Accepted Answer

No, but sedating: Tons of meds cause false-positive results in drug tests. It depends on the actual testing reagents. Here's just one ex: http://www.pharmacologyweekly.com/articles/drug-classes-cause-false-positive-urine-drug-screen. Be honest reporting all meds, even if they won't show. Your antihistamine drops are considered sedating, so may be prohibited if you are a pilot/ATC. Consider montelukast. Works well.

Question 6

which prescribed drugs is better for nasal allergy?
montelukast , apo-citrizine , antihistamin) tab. , (budesonide or floxytide) spray , hydroxizine?

Accepted Answer

Nasal spray: prescription nasal spray ( Flonase, Nasonex) should be tried first. May supplement with other pills if alone is not enough.

Question 7

i have a chronic nasal allergy. every day it gets blocked and have depend on a nasal drop which opens it up.

Accepted Answer

Go see your doctor: I don't know what's available in india so you'll need to see your local doc. I assume nasal is salt water. Avoid nasal decongestant sprays that quickly lead to rhinitis medicamentosa which is fancy way of saying you become addicted to them. Check out http://www.Nytimes.Com/2006/03/14/health/14spra.Html. Consider nasal steroids & oral antihistamines like loratadine. Maybe montelukast. Ask your doc.

Question 8

what do doctors mean by a nasal allergy?

Accepted Answer

Nose  attack: Your  nose  is  the  target  i.E  stuffy, runny,  itchy,  and  sneezy  nose  b, cause  of  allergens

Question 9

which is better for a nasal allergy levocetrizine or ceteizine hcl?

Accepted Answer

Both are good: Everyone responds differently to allergy medicines so it is what works best for the individual.

Question 10

can i take similasan nasal allergy relief twice a day?

Accepted Answer

Yes: This is a homeopathic saline nasal spray that can be used "as needed".  It should be safe to use several times a day for symptoms of allergy.  You are probably benefiting most from the saline itself, as this helps to shrink nasal membranes and may help some allergy symptoms.
