What is Beclometasone 50mg Nasal Spray?

Beclometasone nasal spray is an anti-inflammatory medication that works to alleviate symptoms of allergic rhinitis by reducing swelling and mucus production in the nasal passages. It is effective for treating hay fever and other airborne allergies. The medication usually takes about 2 days to start working, with full effects visible within 2 weeks of regular use

The active ingredient in Beclometasone 50mg Nasal Spray, beclometasone dipropionate, is a corticosteroid. Corticosteroids are drugs that reduce inflammation and swelling. It works by preventing the release of substances that cause inflammation. When used as directed, beclometasone dipropionate in Beclometasone 50mg Nasal Spray helps to control and prevent asthma symptoms by reducing the inflammation and swelling of the airways.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before you start your treatment journey.

Who can use Beclometasone nasal spray?

Beclometasone nasal spray is suitable for adults and children aged 6 and over who experience symptoms of seasonal or perennial allergic rhinitis, including hay fever, pet allergies, and house dust mite allergies. It is a prescription medicine and requires a clinical assessment before it can be dispensed through SwiftDoctor. Beclometasone is not suitable for everyone: it should be used with caution by those with certain nasal infections or a known sensitivity to beclometasone dipropionate. Your SwiftDoctor clinician will review your medical history and confirm whether it is the right treatment for you.

What is the active ingredient in Beclometasone nasal spray?

The active ingredient is beclometasone dipropionate, a corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation in the lining of the nasal passages. Each spray delivers 50 micrograms of beclometasone dipropionate. A full list of excipients is provided in the patient information leaflet supplied with your medication.

What is the Beclometasone nasal spray dosage?

For adults and adolescents aged 12 and over, the recommended starting dose is two sprays into each nostril twice daily, which may be reduced to one spray per nostril twice daily once symptoms are controlled. For children aged 6 to 11, the recommended dose is one spray into each nostril twice daily. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your SwiftDoctor clinician.

How do I use Beclometasone nasal spray?

Before first use, prime the spray by pressing the nozzle several times until a fine mist appears. Gently blow your nose to clear the nasal passages, then tilt your head slightly forward and insert the nozzle into one nostril, directing it slightly away from the centre of your nose. Press to release the spray while breathing in slowly through the nostril. Repeat for the other nostril. Wipe the nozzle clean after each use and replace the protective cap.

How long does Beclometasone nasal spray take to work?

Some improvement in nasal symptoms may be noticeable after a few days of regular use, but the full benefit of Beclometasone nasal spray typically develops over one to two weeks. For seasonal allergies such as hay fever, it can be helpful to start using the spray a few days before symptoms are expected to begin. Continue using it as directed even if you feel better, as consistent use gives the best results.

What are the most common side effects of Beclometasone nasal spray?

The most commonly reported side effects include nosebleeds, nasal irritation, and headache. These are usually mild and often improve as your body adjusts to the treatment. If you experience severe or persistent nosebleeds, or any other side effects that concern you, contact your SwiftDoctor clinician. A full list of side effects is provided in the patient information leaflet included with your medication.

What is the difference between Beclometasone and Avamys nasal spray?

Both Beclometasone and Avamys are corticosteroid nasal sprays used to treat allergic rhinitis, but they contain different active ingredients and are used at different frequencies. Beclometasone (beclometasone dipropionate 50mcg) is typically applied twice daily, while Avamys (fluticasone furoate 27.5mcg) is applied once daily. Both are effective, and the most appropriate choice depends on your individual symptoms and circumstances, which your SwiftDoctor clinician will assess during your consultation.

Can Beclometasone nasal spray be used by children?

Yes. Beclometasone nasal spray can be used by children aged 6 and over under adult supervision, at a lower dose than adults. It should not be used in children under 6. As with all corticosteroid nasal sprays used in children, monitoring for any effect on growth may be appropriate with prolonged use. Your SwiftDoctor clinician can advise on appropriate use for your child.

Can I use Beclometasone nasal spray during pregnancy?

If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, you should discuss this with your SwiftDoctor clinician before using Beclometasone nasal spray. Your clinician will help you weigh up the potential benefits against any risks and identify the most appropriate way to manage your allergy symptoms.

How should Beclometasone nasal spray be stored?

Store Beclometasone nasal spray at or below 25°C, away from direct sunlight. Do not freeze. Keep the bottle upright and store it in its protective case. Keep it out of the reach of children and do not use it after the expiry date printed on the packaging.

What should I do if I miss a dose of Beclometasone nasal spray?

If you miss a dose, use it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and carry on with your usual routine. Do not use a double dose to make up for a missed one. If you have any questions, contact your SwiftDoctor clinician.
