A member asked:
There is a foul smell coming from my flonase nasal spray bottles tip. bacteria? shall i use it or thoroughly clean it with alcohol beforehand?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, don't use it: Get a new one, fungus can grow easily on steroid sprays, keep using the saline nasal washes, if you don't improve on flonase OTC, you need to get seen, mind you read the labels carefully on how to use it
