Overview Citonase Nasal Spray

Nasal administration of OsteoNasal is indicated for osteoporosis management in postmenopausal individuals, promoting bone density and fracture risk reduction. It may also alleviate bone pain related to Paget's disease. Administer as directed by your physician. Prior to application, gently clear nasal passages. Insert the spray into one nostril, keeping the other closed, then inhale deeply to ensure proper distribution; repeat for the opposite nostril. Concurrent calcium and vitamin D supplementation is recommended for optimal therapeutic response. Commonly reported side effects include nasal discharge, epistaxis, backache, arthralgia, cephalalgia, and other nasal irritations (e.g., pruritus, discomfort). While usually mild and self-limiting, persistent or bothersome effects warrant physician consultation for management strategies. Pre-treatment disclosure of cardiac, renal, or hepatic conditions is essential for safe usage. Consult your physician before commencing treatment if pregnant or breastfeeding.
