QNASL (beclomethasone dipropionate)

Respiratory Approved 2012-03-23

QNASL is indicated for the treatment of Allergic Rhinitis.

How QNASL Works

** Beclomethasone dipropionate is a prodrug that is converted into its active metabolite, beclomethasone-17-monopropionate. While the precise mechanism of action in allergic rhinitis is unknown, it binds to glucocorticoid receptors to exert anti-inflammatory effects. It inhibits various inflammatory cells (such as mast cells and eosinophils) and blocks the release of inflammatory mediators, including histamine, eicosanoids, and cytokines.
