Buy Dymista Nasal Spray Suspension
Dymista Nasal Spray Suspension is a treatment used to relieve hay fever symptoms and allergies.
It can relieve symptoms such as a runny nose and sneezing caused by moderate to severe seasonal and perennial rhinitis caused by pollen, house mites, mould, dust or pets.
How Dymista Nasal Spray Suspension works
Each spray of Dymista Nasal Spray Suspension contains 137mg of azelastine hydrochloride, an antihistamine, and 50mg of fluticasone propionate, a corticosteroid.
Antihistamines prevent the effects of histamine, a chemical released by the body during an allergic reaction. They reduce the symptoms of hay fever or allergic rhinitis.
Corticosteroids work by reducing the inflammation caused by an overly reactive immune system.

What causes hay fever?
Hayfever is a common allergic condition that affects up to one in five people.
It usually affects people in the spring and summer when plants start to release pollen, a fine powder let out by plants as part of their reproductive cycle.
The proteins in pollen can cause your nose, throat, eyes and sinuses to become swollen and inflamed.
The main three types of pollen that can trigger allergic reactions are tree pollen, grass pollen and weed pollen.
