`GSK Consumer Healthcare Launches
`FLONASE® Sensimist™ Allergy Relief
`Nationwide
`
`08 February 2017
`WARREN, N.J
`
`New OTC product with unique technology aims to help allergy sufferers
`find more complete relief. [i]
`®
`GSK Consumer Healthcare today announced the nationwide launch of FLONASE
`Sensimist™ Allergy Relief (fluticasone furoate, 27.5 mcg spray), a new over-the-counter
`(OTC) treatment for symptoms associated with seasonal and perennial allergies.
`
`With unique MistPro™ technology, FLONASE Sensimist delivers a fine, gentle, yet
`powerful mist spray, providing non-drowsy, 24-hour relief of allergy symptoms including
`itchy, watery eyes*, nasal congestion, runny or itchy nose and sneezing.
`
`Taken once daily, directly in the nose, FLONASE Sensimist protects against allergies
`caused by triggers including pollen, mold, dust and pets. Unlike most OTC allergy pills,
`which act on histamine alone, FLONASE Sensimist helps block six key inflammatory
`substances.[ii] Further, FLONASE Sensimist has been found to be 40% stronger than a
`leading non-drowsy allergy pill.[iii]
`
`“For the more than 50 million Americans who suffer from allergies, the burden is more
`than just a stuffy nose,” said Dr. Clifford Bassett, Founder and Medical Director of Allergy
`& Asthma Care of New York. “Uncontrolled allergies have a measurable impact on quality
`of life, affecting children and adults. In my patient population, having a proactive treatment
`plan in place makes a big difference in managing their allergies.”
`
`Additional key features of FLONASE Sensimist’s unique, ergonomic design include:
`
`Scent-free
`Alcohol-free
`Little or no drip
`Less invasive with the shortest nozzle
`Delivers consistent dosing each time
