Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specially compounded nasal spray formulation of Naltrexone HCl 0.5%/Azelastine HCl 0.175%. This unique formulation is designed to address a range of conditions, including allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinitis, and non-allergic rhinitis. It is also effective in alleviating symptoms such as nasal congestion, sneezing, and itching that are commonly associated with these conditions.

The active ingredients in this formulation, Naltrexone HCl and Azelastine HCl, work synergistically to provide relief. Naltrexone HCl is an opioid antagonist that functions by blocking the effects of opioids in the body. It is particularly effective in reducing symptoms of allergic rhinitis, such as sneezing, itching, and nasal congestion. On the other hand, Azelastine HCl is an antihistamine that operates by inhibiting the action of histamine, a chemical that the body releases during an allergic reaction. It is primarily used to alleviate symptoms of non-allergic rhinitis, such as sneezing, itching, and nasal congestion.

This compounded nasal spray formulation is a potent treatment for both allergic and non-allergic rhinitis, as well as the nasal congestion, sneezing, and itching that accompany these conditions. It is a safe and well-tolerated treatment option, with minimal side effects. The liquid formulation is delivered in a spray form, specifically designed for administration into the nasal cavity. This allows for targeted local or systemic effects through the nostrils, providing effective relief where it is needed most.

If you have any queries or require further information about this compounded nasal spray formulation, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy. Our team is committed to assisting you in finding the most suitable treatment for your condition.
