A member asked:
Currently dealing with afrin rebound. started taking flonase with it too, (read this is okay?) to help me wean off the afrin. approximately how long does it take, to receive the full effectiveness of the flonase?

While Afrin works by constricting swollen nasal membranes by constricting blood vessels, Flonase works by reducing membrane inflammation & combating allergies. Afrin's effect is immediate but in my experience the Flonase effect on inflammation& allergies may take a few days.
