About betamethasone nose drops

Betamethasone nose drops are used to treat inflammatory nose conditions. They contain a corticosteroid (sometimes called a 'steroid') which helps to relieve swelling, redness and irritation.

To make sure this is the right treatment for you, before you start using betamethasone nose drops it is important that your doctor knows:

• إذا كنت قد تعرضت في أي وقت مضى لرد فعل تحسسي تجاه دواء.

• If you think you have an infection in your nose.

• إذا كنت قد أجريت أي عملية جراحية على أنفك مؤخرًا.

• If you have tuberculosis (TB) in your lungs.

• إذا كنت حاملاً أو مرضعة.

• قبل استخدام القطرات، اقرأ النشرة المطبوعة من الشركة المصنعة الموجودة في العبوة. ستوفر لك المزيد من المعلومات حول البيتاميثازون وستقدم لك قائمة كاملة بالآثار الجانبية التي قد تواجهها.

• It is usual to use two to three drops in each nostril twice a day, although it is important that you use the drops as you have been advised by your doctor if it is different to this.

1. انفخ أنفك بلطف لتنظيفه.

2. قم بإزالة الغطاء من الزجاجة.

3. In order to put the drops in so that the solution spreads all over the inside of your nose, it is best to lie on a bed with your head hanging backwards over an edge. An alternative is to kneel or bend forwards with your head down. (Do not stand with your head just tipped backwards, as the drops will not reach all the surfaces inside your nose if you do this.)

4. Put two or three drops into each nostril. Stay lying or bending down for two minutes after putting in the drops before getting up. This is so that the liquid stays for a while in your nose and does not immediately run out of your nose or down the back of your throat.

5. Replace the cap on the bottle after using the drops.
   

• Do not use the drops for longer than a week unless your doctor has specifically told you to do so.

• Do not let anyone else use your drops and do not use anyone else's drops yourself.

You may get a slight feeling of irritation or dryness. This is usually mild and soon passes. If you develop a skin rash or if you notice any other symptoms which you think may be due to the drops, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice.

• احفظ جميع الأدوية بعيدًا عن متناول ورؤية الأطفال.

• احفظه في مكان بارد وجاف، بعيدًا عن الحرارة المباشرة والضوء.

• In order to prevent the risk of infection, throw away any solution left in the bottle after you have finished your course of treatment. Do not keep it to use another time. Nose drops only keep for four weeks once the bottle has been opened.
