Rhinase Nasal Drops belongs to a class of corticosteroid medications used to relieve symptoms of allergic rhinitis/hay fever, allergies, and vasomotor (nonallergic) rhinitis. It is also used to minimize nasal polyps (non-cancerous growths on the lining of the nose or sinuses) during nasal polyp removal surgery. Allergic rhinitis is an allergy-induced by dust or pollen that causes inflammation of the mucous membranes of the eyes and nose, resulting in a runny nose and watery eyes. 

Rhinase Nasal Drops contains Beclomethasone Dipropionate, a corticosteroid that works by blocking the action of natural chemical substances which cause allergic reactions. Thus, it relieves the symptoms of itchy, stuffy or runny nose, sneezing, or other associated symptoms due to hay fever, other allergies, or vasomotor (nonallergic) rhinitis.

Rhinase Nasal Drops must be used as directed by the healthcare professional or as per leaflet information. Rhinase Nasal Drops may cause side effects such as sneezing, dry or sore throat, unpleasant taste or smell and dry or sore nose or nosebleeds. These side effects vary individually and may not occur in everyone taking Rhinase Nasal Drops. If any of the side effects are not manageable, consult your doctor.

Allergies: Allergies are the reaction of the immune system to a foreign material that is usually not harmful to the body. These foreign substances are referred to as 'allergens.' Allergic reactions differ from person to person. Some people may be allergic to certain foods or suffer from seasonal allergies such as hay fever. On the other hand, others may be allergic to pollen or pet dander.

Hay fever: Hay fever/allergic rhinitis is an allergic reaction to pollen, typically when it comes into contact with the mouth, nose, eyes and throat. Hay fever symptoms include sneezing and coughing, a runny or blocked nose, itchy, red or watery eyes, itchy throat, mouth, nose and ears, loss of smell, pain around the temples and forehead, headache, earache and feeling tired.

Nonallergic rhinitis: Nonallergic rhinitis is a condition that occurs when the nasal tissues become irritated (swollen). It is also known as vasomotor rhinitis. Symptoms of nonallergic rhinitis include a blocked nose, a runny nose, sneezing, discomfort or mild irritation in and around the nose and a reduced sense of smell.
