Introduction

Avoidance is always the best treatment for allergies regardless of which allergens are the triggers.

OVERDOSE

Like any other nasally administered corticosteroid, acute overdosing is unlikely in view of the total amount of active ingredient present.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

AllerNaze (triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray) is contraindicated in patients with a hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients.
