NASACORT AQ

Nasacort AQ is a type of intranasal corticosteroid (INS).

INSs are popular in the treatment of nasal allergy symptoms and are recommended by the American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology guidelines. And, unlike antihistamines, INSs also relieve what are called "late phase symptoms," like stuffiness.
