Fluticasone is available in several forms, ranging from over-the-counter (OTC) options for general allergies to specialized prescription systems for chronic conditions:
: By blowing into a mouthpiece, the user creates positive pressure that seals the soft palate, ensuring the medication travels deep into the sinuses rather than dripping down the throat or being swallowed.
: Research indicates that these "deep" delivery systems provide more consistent access to sites of chronic inflammation compared to traditional outpatient nasal delivery. Product Options & Availability
: Standard sprays often reach only the lower nasal cavity; EDS is designed to deliver fluticasone to the superior and posterior regions, including the osteomeatal complex (OMC) , which is critical for treating chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyps.
