What is Patanase used for? 

Patanase’s generic name is olopatadine. Patanase Nasal Spray is an antihistamine medication indicated to help relieve symptoms of seasonal allergic rhinitis such as clogged, runny, or itchy nose and sneezing. It belongs to a class of drugs known as selective H1-receptor antagonists.

How does Patanase work? 

Symptoms of seasonal allergic rhinitis or hay fever are commonly caused by pollen during the spring and summer months. Inhaling pollen triggers the immune system to produce histamine to eliminate the intruding substance. The capillaries in the body become more permeable, and white blood cells move into them, which creates the fluid that leads to an itchy, runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing.

When this nasal spray is administered correctly and absorbed into the bloodstream, it blocks the effects of histamine. As a result, it reduces symptoms like congestion, itchy nose, or sneezing.

Patanase Dosage 

The dosage and frequency of this antihistamine medication are different for every individual. It typically depends on the patient’s health status, the severity of the condition, age, and response to the regimen. This drug is available in nasal spray formulation with a strength of 665mcg. 

The recommended adult dose for treating allergic rhinitis is two sprays twice daily in each nostril. However, the suggested intake for children (6 to 11 years old) is one spray twice daily in each nostril.

Guide to using Patanase Nasal Spray 

For first-time users, shake and prime it five times until a fine mist appears. If you have not used it for more than seven days, prime it again with two sprays. 

  • Before using this nasal spray, blow your nose softly to clear your nasal passages.
  • With your index finger, seal one nostril.
  • Tilt your head down and insert the nasal tip into the other nose.

  • Remove the tip from your nose and breathe through your mouth for five seconds.
