Good sinus care can mean the difference between optimum health and chronic illness. At Fusion Specialty Pharmacy, we specialize in helping you take care of both. Our sinus solutions include nasal irrigation therapy, and atomized/nebulizer therapy to deliver medication deep into your sinus cavities.

SINUS MEDICATION

Compounded sinus medications offer significant benefits to patients. Fusion is able to customize treatments that meet each patient’s specific needs. While some sinus infections are acute and may last for a few days, chronic sinusitis can persist for weeks and occur multiple times a year for most patients.

COMMON CAUSES OF SINUSITIS:

Acute (short-term) Sinusitis, commonly experienced once a year:

• Common Cold
• Seasonal Allergies (Allergic rhinitis)
• Food Allergies
• Bacteria or viruses spread from person to person
• Fungal exposure
• Dry nasal/sinus passages due to environment, medications, or nutrition

Chronic (long-term) Sinusitis, commonly experienced multiple times throughout the year:

• Structural abnormalities (e.g., deviated septum)
• Immune/autoimmune deficiencies
• Exposure to cigar/cigarette smoke
• Nasal/sinus polyps
• Dry nasal/sinus passages due to environment, medications, or nutrition

COmpounded NASAL THERAPY

Fusion Specialty Pharmacy provides advanced nasal therapy, delivering medication directly to sinus cavities, treating infections at the site. Nasal therapy is widely used for seasonal allergies and sinus congestion.

IRRIGATION THERAPY

Large volume rinses, or irrigation therapy, is the most effective treatment option for most patients. Medicated and non-medicated irrigation treatments are commonly recommended to flush the nasal cavities. For non-medicated therapy we recommend a saline irrigation, similar to Neilmed™. When used properly this rinse can help reduce sinus symptoms caused by allergies, pollution or chronic dry sinuses.

Compounded (or medicated) sinus medication in the form of saline rinses can help patients who suffer with chronic rhinitis and sinusitis. Ask our pharmacist for more details

ATOMIZED/NEBULIZER THERAPY

NasoNeb® Nebulizer can deliver multiple medications to sinus cavities with a 1-2 minute treatment. This type of therapy is an alternative to nasal irrigation therapy. The NasoNeb actively delivers a large-particle aerosol into the sinus cavities using a positive pressure airstream. These treatments can be effective for some patients.
