Judy, Murray, et al.,

Any difference between Nasonex (what I use now) and Flonase? Now that
Flonase is generic, I can save $10 a month co-pay.

Thanks,
Rick

Both have preservatives and alcohol in them: brand name flonase had
"masking perfume": nasonex is now scent free. Hypothetically nasonex
is less bioavailable as a steroid. I used to use flonase, and liked
it, but my allergist prefers rhinocort AQ because it has no
benzylchonium chloride/scent/alcohol.
The generic option is really nice for co-pays.
