Yes, it is safe.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

1. Numerous studies have proved conclusively that you may safely take the above medications together.

2. In fact, it has also been proved that the sum of the beneficial effects of the combination is more than the effect of each individual drug.

3. This is a now very commonly prescribed combination worldwide.

4. You may follow up here in two weeks with the results of your treatment. Remember that it takes up to 7-10 days for the effect of Nasonex to build up.

I hope that I have answered your queries. If you have any further questions, I will be available to answer them.

Regards.
