Fluticasone is a manufactured glucocorticoid used to treat nasal symptoms.[1][2][3][4][5] Both the esters, fluticasone furoate and fluticasone propionate, are also used as topical anti-inflammatories and inhaled corticosteroids, and are used much more commonly in comparison.[3][2][4][6]

The route of administration varies, but often it is inhaled intranasally. It may use an exhalation delivery system.

It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[7] In 2019, it was the eighteenth most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 27 million prescriptions.[8][9]
