| 1 | Seasonal allergies/sinus pain | Severe headache and major itching of my skin. | F | 39 | 2 days | 9/15/2014 | 1 | Allergies | Dizziness, vertigo, stiff neck and nausea. Thought it was something else causing these symptoms but so glad to hear I was not alone with this experience! | 49 | 2 days 15 mg | 10/9/2019 | 1 | Post nasal drip | Anxiety, detached feeling, insomnia | I tried flonase, nasonex and both gave me horrible anxiety and detached feeling (like I'm not in reality) hoping Nasacort would work but the same thing... it is a pretty scary thing.. I guess I just can't take any steroid nasal spray. Too bad. | F | 55 | 2 days | 10/9/2018 | 1 | Allergies | Severe dizziness and vomiting after just two days. Almost headed to ER but realized it must be this medication. I have been off it for one day and feel slightly better. Still dizzy but not as nauseous . Not for me . | F | 45 | 2 days | 3/18/2019 | 1 | Clogged ear and allergic rhinitis | Elevated blood pressure, anxiety, and panic attacks. | I would never take this nasal steroid again. Ent gave me a sample in the office for my allergies. I normally have good blood pressure but after taking this steroid, my blood pressure elevated to 160/100. Blood pressure is now back down to normal, but my anxiety is at an all time high. Flonase never made me feel this way. I will definitely stick to that. | F | 30 | 2 days | 8/6/2018 | 1 | Sinus pressure and swelling in nose | Anxiety, short temper, loss of self and ability to communicate rationally and clearly | Was scary to see dramatic difference in my daughters behavior. Very disappointed in allergist who recommended it and nurses who assured me these kind of side effects were uncommon. Feel horrible I put my daughter through this... Seems much milder options should have been recommended first. | F | 4 | 2 days 1spray/day | 8/24/2016 | 1 | post nasal drip, loud breathing | panic attacks, anxiety, can't get a deep breathe, blood pressure spikes, loss of energy,depression | Had a panic attack that I went to the ER for a presumed heart attack or stroke. Blood pressure shot up to 202/150 and have been battling anxiety every since. Never been sick in a day in my life( missed 2 days of work in 30 yrs.). Anxiety comes and goes now and can't figure out what is going on till I read this blog. Will stop taking as of today. | M | 56 | 2 days 1X day | 10/11/2016 | 5 | Allergies | i didn't notice any side effects. little bit of blood sometimes when I blow my nose. | In worst conditions I will use it with Claritin dissolvable and fantastic results. But otherwise it works super fast and breaks up/ relives more sinus inflammation than anything I've ever used. It's literally like opening the flood gates! It even gives my sinus's a chance to repel that deep down infective material that causes headaches and pains. Taken in several days in row you'll feel more relief than with anything else. Check with your doctor if your taken any birth control or any kind of steroids. | M | 43 | 3 days 55mcg | 4/26/2015 | 4 | Nasal congestion | I feel slightly hyper and it's a little hard to concentrate on my work. I also feel slightly, slightly anxious and irritable. | I wanted something to open my sinus passages. The sinus membranes were swollen making it difficult to breathe, but I had no drainage. This happens to me often due to allergies. The first day I sprayed one dose in each nostril. My sinuses cleared up fairly quickly, but I started to experience a hyperactive feeling. The next morning I decided to spray one dose in one nostril so I could have some of the benefits without suffering from insomnia, since I had read that some people have insomnia with this medicine. This morning I sprayed one dose in the other nostril. My nasal passages are fairly clear, but I feel hyper and I hope I'll be able to sleep tonight. I think I'm going to wait a few days before using any more nasacort. If my sinuses get blocked again, I think I'll follow the same process I just outlined. | F | 49 | 3 days 1X day | 9/17/2015 | 3 | Nonallergic rhinitist | My 4 1/2 year old became hyper. Complained of feeling hot all the time. Hands and feet particularly hot and sweaty. I call it "steroidy." | I would not use this for a child. I will say it worked well, better than Flonase, but at least she does not have side effects with Flonase. | F | 4.5 | 3 days 110 mcg 2X day | 10/28/2015 | 3 | Allergies | While it did help with my nasal allergy symptoms and post nasal drip, it is not worth the side effects for me. Anxiety, slow pulse rate, heart palpitations, dizziness, tremors and shaking, headache and bloody nose. | F | 48 | 3 days 1X day | 7/31/2020 | 3 | sinus infection | Severe headache, jaw and teeth pain/pressure, a little dizziness/weakness and sleepless nights. | Seemed to work, however can't take the side effects. Will try my nedi pot | F | 61 | 3 days 1/2 ×D | 10/6/2015 | 3 | blocked nose and sinusite | non stop cought,with yellow secretions and little blood in it. sore throat | ive been taking this medecine for 3 days now 2 vaporisation each nostrine 2 times a day and yeah the sinusite has gone but now i had extreme fever,headaches for 1 days then 2 days of non stop cought and yellow secretions with sometime blood in it. ill try to stop it instantly cause i fear taking one more dose. | M | 29 | 3 days | 3/29/2009 | 2 | plugged ear from ear infection | Nasacort has helped some with my ear being plugged up. Experiencing numbness in mouth, nose, and cheeks that seems to be spreading down to body/arms. Am also feeling fuzzy/cloudy headed that was not there prior to using Nasacort. Taking along with Delsym for cough and Amoxicillin for ear infection, neither of which have caused problems before. First used Nasacort 3 days ago. | F | 46 | 3 days 1X day | 3/5/2020 | 1 | Sinus congestion | After a couple of days using, I had an experience of disequilibrium, feeling off balance. It passed but was scary. I had another episode the following day and went to the ER. Nothing significant was found, but I stopped using the medication for a few days. The next week I used it in the morning and had another episode. This time, I connected it definitively to the Nasacort. I have never used Nasacort since and have never had another episode. I have gone back to Flonase when I think I need a squirt of a steroidal nasal spray, but for the most part I find natural home treatments more effective than medications for sinus issues. | I would never use Nasacort again. | F | 67 | 3 days 1 squirt 1X day | 1/13/2019 | 1 | Allergies | Lightheaded, anxious , jittery, nervous, heart racing, insomnia | I would not recommend trying this. The side effects aren't worth it. | F | 52 | 3 days 55 mcg | 10/10/2015 | 1 | Clogged nose at night. | I started Nasacort three days ago. The same day I started it, my left eye felt like it had sand in it. It was very painful and relieved by some eye drops. I have never suffered from dry eye before, so I have to attribute it to the Nasacort. I see I am not the only one who reacted this way. The Nasacort did help to make the swelling go down in my nasal passages, but it is NOT worth the eye pain it caused. I will be stopping it today! | F | 67 | 3 days 2 sprays 1X day | 9/4/2015 | 1 | Allergies | It gave me severe hayfever. | It gave me severe hayfever. I thought this was supposed to help allergies. This is crap. | F | 35 | 3 days 1 1X day | 7/12/2016 | 1 | Allergies | I now have a horrible itchy rash over most of my body, been wearing my PJs cause I can't stand clothes!! Never again in the trash with that poison!!! | Do not use!!! | F | 45 | 3 days 1spray 1+ | 6/10/2016 | 1 | Nasal Congstion | Extreme anxiety and agitation. Moodiness. Low energy levels too. Racing negative thoughts. Increased anxiety should be listed on the box. Nasal congestion improved but these side effects are not worth it! | F | 36 | 3 days 1 X D 1X day | 4/12/2021 |
