Overview

FLUTICASONE NASAL SPRAY What is fluticasone. Fluticasone is a nasal corticosteroid used for symptoms of seasonal allergies such as sneezing, nasal congestion, a runny nose, and inflamed sinuses. There are two formulations of fluticasone that you can find over the counter: fluticasone propionate (Flonase Allergy Relief) and fluticasone furoate (Flonase Sensimist). Fluticasone propionate can be used twice daily, while fluticasone furoate should be used once daily because of its longer duration of action. The recommended maximum dose can be given as two sprays in each nostril once daily. Fluticasone furoate may be preferred for some because of its aftertaste compared to fluticasone propionate.1   How can fluticasone help alleviate certain long COVID symptoms?  The SARS-CoV-2 virus is known to enter ACE2 receptors in the nasal mucosa, which activates an inflammatory response that can lead to olfactory dysfunction.
