Hayfever Nasal Sprays

About this range

Hayfever nasal sprays are commonly used to help relieve nasal allergy symptoms such as a blocked or runny nose, sneezing, itching and congestion caused by hayfever.

This collection includes both steroid and non-steroid nasal sprays for hayfever, suitable for managing seasonal allergic rhinitis when used correctly and consistently.

How to choose a hayfever nasal spray

  • Blocked or congested nose: steroid nasal sprays are often more effective for persistent blockage and inflammation.
  • Milder symptoms: non-steroid sprays may suit mild or occasional hayfever symptoms.
  • Prevention vs relief: many steroid sprays work best when used daily to prevent symptoms rather than provide instant relief.
  • Age suitability: always check age guidance, particularly for children.
  • Combination treatment: nasal sprays are often used alongside antihistamine tablets or eye drops for better symptom control.

Using nasal sprays correctly

  1. Prepare: gently blow your nose before using the spray.
  2. Position: aim the nozzle slightly away from the centre of the nose, not straight up.
  3. Apply: use the recommended number of sprays.
  4. Consistency: use daily as directed, even if symptoms begin to improve.

Spraying directly onto the centre of the nose can increase irritation or nosebleeds and should be avoided.

FAQs

What is the best nasal spray for hayfever?

The best option depends on your symptoms. Steroid nasal sprays are often recommended for ongoing congestion, while non-steroid sprays may suit milder hayfever symptoms. Your pharmacist can help you choose.

How long does a steroid nasal spray take to work?

Steroid nasal sprays usually take a few days of regular use to reach full effect, rather than providing immediate relief.

Can I use a hayfever nasal spray with antihistamines?

Yes, nasal sprays are commonly used alongside antihistamine tablets or eye drops for more effective hayfever symptom control.

Are hayfever nasal sprays suitable for children?

Some nasal sprays are suitable for children, but age limits vary. Always check the product label and ask your pharmacist for advice before use.
