Nasal Polyps

I had surgery to remove nasal polyps about 7 years ago and afterwards was told to use a nasal spray Fluticasone to help me from having anymore.

So far so good but lately my pharmacy has had a problem of obtaining Fluticasone therefore my GP has suggested Beclomethasone instead. I have used this spray before but for hay fever. Therefore, I am wondering if this spray will do the same job as the Fluticasone.

Thanks for any replies.

suggest you speak to your pharmacist about the situation. They are the people who will have up to date knowledge about different medications. And should be able to suggest an appropriate alternative if necessary.
