Rhinocort Aqua Nasal Spray belongs to the class of medicines called 'glucocorticosteroids' used to relieve symptoms of seasonal or year-round allergic rhinitis/hay fever. It treats allergy symptoms, such as runny nose, sneezing, itchy eyes, nose, and throat. Allergic rhinitis is inflammation and allergy of the nose caused by an allergen, such as pollen, dust, mould, or skin flakes from certain animals.

Thereby, it helps treat inflammatory diseases. It relieves nasal and sinus congestion, mucus production, and nasal swelling caused by allergic rhinitis.
