Is Fluticasone Advisable To Treat Severe Headache?

I live in Pine, Arizona, a 5500 elevation. I am getting intense headaches, and believe it might be an allergic reaction to juniper trees. I have a two-year old prescription of fluticasone propionate nasal spray. Would it be wise to use this product?

Hi
It is not advisable to use Fluticasone for severe headache.

Fluticasone nasal spray is indicated for the treatment of the nasal symptoms of allergic rhinitis.

Severe headache could be due to other causes such as migraine, high BP, stress etc. Take a Paracetamol tablet and get examined by a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment.

Hope this answers your query.
