Anyone else confused by this TV ad?

Flonase is the only one approved for not one, not two, but three things:

1. Indoor allergies.

2. Outdoor allergies.

3. Environmental troublemakers.

Okay, so exactly what "environment" is neither indoors nor outdoors?

Am I missing something here? I've never watched much TV so I haven't seen too many TV ads, but the only one I like is the HP ad with the photos.

1. Anything called Flonase ain't going up my nose
My favourite is the ones that say "this is not intended to diagnose, treat or cure any disease". Yeah? Then what the hell is it for?

On a related note - I bought a bottle of orange juice today. In big letters it said 100% Pure Orange Juice. In much smaller letters it said "with other ingredients".

Khash.

2. Dust mites, I think
Maybe perfume type allergies?

I like the HP ad too!

3. Environmental troublemakers would be fumes, irritants and
other things that would inflame the ole nostrils but are not typically classified as allergens (like dust, pollen, mold)

And even though it has a strange name, the stuff works!!!!!!!

Beats systemic medicine. I use it and Patinol eyedrops when my allergies kick in and for the most part can avoid oral meds.
