Do Fluticasone Nasal Spray And Nasacort Spray Have The Same Composition?
is fluticasone propionate nasal spray and Children s Nasalcort basically the same thing? My son has allergies and seasonal asthma and the allergist said to use flovent and not the fluticasone as it has more steroids. Went to pediatrician and he advised starting a nasal spray such as Nasacort. Is this in direct contrast to what the allergist recommended?

You can give either of them to your son.
