Fluticasone Nasal Spray IP, marketed under the brand name FLUTICATONE PROP NASAL SPRAY, is one of the most trusted treatments for managing nasal allergies, rhinitis, sinusitis, and nasal polyps. For patients dealing with frequent sneezing, nasal congestion, or seasonal allergies, this spray provides long-lasting relief by reducing inflammation inside the nasal passages.
