Nils states:
"Flunisolide - would that be a corticosteroid? I remeber (once more, in
the ENT emergency room) a guy who worked as a flavor tester with a
tobacco company (dig this - he did not smoke himself!) who had aproblem
with vasomotric rhinitis which was detrimental to his work - he used, if
I remember correctly, a a corticostertoid as nasal inhalant to alleviate
those problems and get on with his day."
I found you some information in a rather outdated 1996 Physicians' Desk
Reference. that describes most of the drugs used in the US.
Flunisolide is an anti-inflammatory steriod having the chemical name
6a-fluoro-11b, 16a, 17, 21-tetrahydroxypregna-1, 4-diene-3, 20-dione
cyclic-16, 17-acetal with acetone. Now if you want to have some fun
with a pharmacist, write a prescription for it using the full official
chemical name.
