Safely Buy Omnaris Nasal Spray ( Ciclesonide ) from Canada Prescriptions Plus.

Indications

Omnaris nasal spray is a medication used to treat symptoms of seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis in adults and children. It contains the active ingredient ciclesonide, which belongs to a class of medications known as corticosteroids.

Ciclesonide works by reducing inflammation in the nasal passages, which helps to relieve symptoms such as sneezing, itching, runny nose, and congestion.

Use and Dosage

Read the Patient Information Leaflet provided by your pharmacist before you start using ciclesonide each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

Gently blow your nose before using this drug. Shake the container gently before each use. Remove the dust cap. Follow the instructions on how to properly prime the bottle when you first use each bottle or if you have not used it for 4 days. A fine spray means that the pump is primed properly.

Use this medication as directed by your doctor, usually once a day. Do not use more than 2 sprays in each nostril daily as this may increase the risk of side effects. Avoid spraying this medication in your eyes or directly onto the nasal septum (the wall between the two nostrils). Follow the detailed instructions for using the spray.

After each use, wipe the spray tip with a clean tissue and replace the protective cap. If the spray tip becomes blocked, do not try to unblock the nasal applicator by using a sharp object. Look at the Patient Information Leaflet to learn how to correctly unblock the spray bottle.

Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, use it at the same time each day.

This medication does not work right away. Some people will feel this medication working within 2 days, but it may take up to 2 weeks for seasonal allergy relief, and up to 5 weeks for year-round allergy relief. When using ciclesonide to prevent seasonal allergy symptoms, start this medication 2-4 weeks before pollen season begins.

Keep track of the number of sprays used from each container. Discard the container after you have used the number of sprays specified on the manufacturer’s package or 4 months after you removed the bottle from the foil pouch it came in, whichever comes first.
