  • Subjects receiving immunotherapy injections (antigen desensitization) must be on a stable maintenance regimen for at least 30 days before the first study visit (adjustments to regimen following a brief period of missed injections do not preclude participation)

You may not qualify if:

  • On nasal examination, subjects with superficial nasal mucosal erosion, moderate nasal mucosal erosion, nasal mucosal ulceration, nasal septum perforation
  • Other nasal disease(s) likely to affect deposition of intranasal medication, such as acute sinusitis, rhinitis medicamentosa or clinically significant polyposis or nasal structural abnormalities

  • Respiratory tract infections within two weeks prior to Visit 1.
  • Subjects with significant pulmonary disease including asthma. Subjects with intermittent asthma who only require short-acting inhaled bronchodilators are eligible for enrollment. Asthma (with the exception of intermittent asthma). Subjects with intermittent asthma who only require short-acting inhaled bronchodilators (not more often than twice per week) and who do not have nocturnal awakening as a result of asthma are eligible for enrollment
  • Chronic obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (clinical diagnosis)
  • Existence of any surgical or medical condition, which in the opinion of the investigator or sponsor's medical monitor, might significantly alter the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of study drug or that might significantly affect the subject's ability to complete this trial
