The way VERAMYST works is not fully understood.
Um, and you want me to spray that up my nose? Do you think I'm stupid?
How did this get past the FDA?
Not being fully understood isn't a problem to get FDA approval. It is uses steroids to reduce the inflammation that results from allergies, so it is understood, just not fully.
quote:
Veramyst is an intranasal corticosteroid (INS) that works throughout the allergy process to block an entire range of the chemicals in the body that are involved in inflammation that may lead to nasal allergy symptoms. However, the precise mechanism through which Veramyst affects allergy symptoms is not known.
Certainly an ominous disclaimer, though. Hardly inspires confidence
