>Doctors and pharmacists sometimes say (patronisingly, I feel) that the drug is not absorbed systemically.

Hi Sigi,

Beconase does not generally cause any systemic side effects. Only a tiny fraction of the dose is absorbed from the nose, but it is absorbed from the intestine after draining from the nose into the throat and being swallowed.

Once the drug has been absorbed, it is very rapidly metabolised and cleared from the body. The result of this is that standard therapeutic doses do not normally cause any side effects apart from local reactions eg. nasal dryness.
