Flonase, an allergy relief medication, will be available over the counter, according to GlaxoSmithKline. The organization announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved over-the-counter treatment for allergy relief.

The medication has been approved for temporary relief from symptoms related to hay fever or upper respiratory allergies.

Flonase Allergy Relief is the only available OTC treatment intended for relief from all allergy symptoms related to the nose and eye, including runny nose, itchy nose, sneezing, nasal congestion, and itchy and water eyes. The medication will be available in its full prescription strength as well as to provide allergy relief for 24 hours.

President of Consumer Healthcare North America at GSK, Colin Mackenzie, said in a statement, “With the significant number of allergy sufferers in the United States and a considerable number of those unsatisfied with their current treatments, we believe the wide availability of Flonase® Allergy Relief over-the-counter is great news for these individuals. GSK has a strong heritage—40 years— in discovering and developing respiratory treatments used by patients worldwide.  We are proud of our track record of successful Rx-to-OTC switches which over the years have significantly improved access to important medicines for our consumers.”

The medication will be available over the counter in early 2015.
