Astepro Nasal Spray and Tissue Bundle 24-Hour Allergy Relief Steroid-Free Azelastine HCI Nasal Congestion Runny Itchy Nose 200

My seasonal allergies seem to get worse every year. I read that this is better for nose related allergy symptoms than your normal OTC allergy pill. My review is based off of relief of having a very stuffy nose. There are a lot of negative reviews about side effects and having a bitter taste in the mouth after using the spray. It is extremely important to follow the instructions on how to use this spray, and better yet, check out their videos. If you take this standing in a regular position with the nozzle point up into your nose you’re gonna have a bad time. The first time I used this product I did not read the instructions and I did have a bad time via bitter taste, sinus headache, and scant bloody noses. After regrouping for a couple days I tried this medication with the correct technique. It has worked wonders!!! I use it at night when my nose starts to get stuffy. I usually have relief for a couple of days. I end up using this product at night about 3 times a week. To summarize the technique: stand with your chin on your chest. When you aim the nozzle in your nostril imagine pointing it towards the back of your head not the top, and aim the nozzle slightly out towards the ear. When you spray the medication do NOT breathe in forcefully through your nose. Take tiny puff inhales through your nose. Repeat on the other side. I keep my chin down on my chest for about a minute. Wipe any excess medication the drips out. I have not had an issue with a bitter taste or adverse side effects. I do notice a slightly sweet taste about 15-30min after taking the medicine. More importantly I’m able to prevent mouth breathing at night. This has greatly increased my comfort and reduced my nasal allergy symptoms. Read more

This is the best allergy relief I’ve ever used. It stops both the itchy nose and the sneezing. I don’t mind the aftertaste at all and I don’t feel it lasts long. It also seems to relieve my itchy eyes which is amazing and not mentioned in their advertising. But it really does help with that which is such a relief! I subscribe to make sure I’m never without it. Read more

Used this as prescribed by my doctor. On the pricier side but does the job. Good quality. Burns the nose a bit when you inhale, almost like breathing in water. No smell. Leaves an aftertaste. Easy to use. Spray in the nose. Read more

I usually use Flonase sensimist but decided to try something new as for me Flonase was really only getting me mild results with daily use. Switching to Astepro I noticed quick results, under 30 minutes, and was using one spray per nostril. That’s the benefit of an antihistamine over a steroid. However one huge downside to this product is the awful taste. I found that quickly after spraying, the solution would work its way through my nasal cavity and start to drip into the back of my throat. Blowing my nose did help by removing excess product but once its back that far, for me I can’t remove it completely. The taste is so bad, super bitter. You need something to drink to get it off the bad of your tongue. Water works ok, coffee is better I found. Overall I recommend since for me it’s the best nasal spray, but it’s something I only use when needed due to the taste. Also stacked this product with the generic of Claritin, which I take daily; no issues. Read more
