Beconase Hayfever Relief Nasal Spray is used to treat and prevent the symptoms of hay fever and other nasal allergies. It helps relieve sneezing, a blocked or runny nose, itching inside the nose, and can also reduce associated eye symptoms caused by seasonal allergies.

Beconase contains beclometasone dipropionate, a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation inside the nasal passages. By calming your body's allergic response, it helps prevent allergy symptoms rather than simply masking them. Regular use provides the best results.

Some people notice an improvement within a few days, but the full benefit may take several days of regular use. For the best effect, start using Beconase before your allergy symptoms become severe if you know your allergy season is approaching.

Adults aged 18 years and over should use two sprays into each nostril twice daily. Once symptoms are under control, the dose may be reduced to one spray into each nostril twice a day. Do not exceed eight sprays in total per day unless advised by a healthcare professional.

Yes. Beconase is designed for regular daily use during allergy season. Using it consistently helps reduce inflammation and keeps symptoms under control. If your symptoms have not improved after seven days, speak to your doctor or pharmacist.

This over-the-counter version is suitable for adults aged 18 years and over with hay fever. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have recently had nasal surgery, or use other steroid medicines, seek medical advice before using the spray.

In many cases, yes. Beconase can be used alongside oral antihistamines if recommended by your doctor or pharmacist, particularly if you have severe allergy symptoms affecting both your nose and eyes. Always check with a healthcare professional if you are taking other steroid medicines.

The most common side effects include nasal irritation, dryness, nosebleeds, and an unpleasant taste or smell. Serious side effects are uncommon but seek medical advice if you develop persistent nosebleeds, vision changes, or signs of an allergic reaction

No. Beconase is intended for allergic rhinitis rather than nasal congestion caused by a viral cold. If your blocked nose is due to an infection, this spray is unlikely to provide the same benefit.

Store the spray below 25°C, keep it in its original carton to protect it from light, and do not refrigerate or freeze it. Once opened, the bottle should generally be used within three months. Always check the expiry date before use.
