| 1 | Allergies | This product clears my blocked nose but I feel hot, agitated and breathless. Anxious and feel like I'm going to pass out. I can't believe how jumpy and nervous it makes me. Weird feeling in my lungs too.All steroid nasal sprays seem the same. I'm going to try a natural alternative | F | 51 | 20 days 2X day | 12/7/2022 | 1 | Sinusitis | Massive panic attack, insomnia, anxious feeling. IF YOU HAVE ANY HISTORY OF ANXIETY OR PANIC DO NOT TAKE THIS DRUG !! | M | 19 | 2 days 1 pump 1X day | 11/15/2020 | 1 | Allergic rhinitis - dripping nose | Constantly dripping nose, nose bleeds. Have stopped using it for 5 days but still have nose bleeds, which I didn't have before. | The product doesn't work at all and causes other problems. Personally I feel it should be taken off the market and that I am entitled to a refund. Unfortunately I purchased a double pack as that was the only one available on the shelf. | F | 77 | 21 days 64mg 1X day | 8/19/2020 | 1 | Allergic Rhinitus | low mood, lack of energy and feeling depressed | I have been taking Rhinocort on and off for a couple of years. It works quite well for a runny or stuffy nose, but I have noticed when I take Rhinocort it makes me feel depressed. I won't take it anymore, I'd rather have a constant runny nose, This medication shouldn't be sold over the counter. | F | 53 | 2 years 30MG 1X day | 6/4/2020 | 1 | Allergies | It seems to be working great for my severe spring allergies, but I started having nightmares. I have also started feeling jumpy, paranoid and uneasy with an irrational sense of doom, and gloom. (Which is completely out of character for me!) I am going to have to discontinue use. | 48 | 4 days | 5/9/2020 | 1 | Sinusitis | This stuff made my nose feel so weird, headaches, lung pain, body aches, insomnia, and the worse panic attacks and heart beats. | F | 29 | 0 days | 3/16/2020 | 1 | Sinus / nasal congestion | Horrific anxiety and panic attacks lasting up to 6 hours, palpitations, body tremors, chills and dizziness - the most frightened I have ever been. I have no history of anxiety. Will never ever use this again. | F | 34 | 4 days | 2/24/2020 | 1 | Chronic Rhinitis | At first I noticed my post nasal drip seemed to be getting worse. Not heavy, but constant, with a slimy feeling constantly at the back of my throat. And then over the weekend, I started feeling an odd fluttering in my chest, as well as anxiety that would come in waves. I'm prone to anxiety, but I had never had attacks like that before. Went to urgent care and they said it sounds like a panic attack. But even hours later I'm still feeling anxious, and after all the other reviews, I'm convinced Rhinocort is the culprit. | If you're sensitive to steroids like I am (I've had bad side effects from Nasacort and Prednisone), be wary of this nasal spray. I'll probably go back to Flonase - it didn't give me any symptoms like this. | F | 32 | 7 days 32 mcg 1X day | 5/30/2017 | 1 | Hayfever for over 5 years | I have been using long time. Maybe 5 years. I was fine for maybe 4 years and now i feel i am smeling some kind of burning smell or smell of smoke around my nose. I found out it was from rhynocoat. It has been like this few months. I have not using it for few months but i still have that problem...smelling something burning. I am afraid it is not gonna go away... | Do not use long period. I was told by my GP doctor it does not have side effect but it does not it. DO NOT USE MORE THAN 2 OR 3 YEARS. | M | 44 | 5 years I spary | 5/5/2017 | 1 | Allergies | Please help! I was prescribed Rhinocort and pain meds following surgery for my wisdom teeth as my teeth were pushing into my sinus cavity and I needed clear sinuses while the cavity heals. as soon as I came off the pain meds i suffered terrible heart palpitations and anxiety. I think this must be a side effect of the Rhinocort. i have since stopped taking it as of today. Please can someone tell me how long these heart palpitations will last....I'm having terrible anxiety and panic because of the palpitations and can't sleep. I don't want to be on anxiety medication for long. my body just doesn't agree with all these prescription medications. I'm so exhausted and mentally drained. | F | 28 | 8 days | 3/22/2017 | 1 | Nasal Congestion | Used Rhinocort for one night. I experienced insomnia, panic attacks, and palpitations. All new symptoms for me. Be wary, when side effect information is available by phone. Will never use again. Glad it works for some, not me! I can't believe this has an indication for use in children, yikes! | F | 46 | 1 days | 3/18/2017 | 1 | Sinuses/allergies | First time ever using this crap...biggest mistake i made...it gave me a panic attack out of no where and lasted 30 to 40 minutes….the very worst feeling ever!! All nasal sprays do the same…I tried them all..never again!!! | F | 40 | 1 days 2x per nos | 2/16/2017 | 1 | allergies | Rash in mouth,swollen gums and lips. | M | 59 | 3 days 32 mcg | 6/15/2016 | 1 | Congestion | It made me more congested than before! By far the worst nasal spray I have ever used and more expensive | F | 20 | 1 days | 2/19/2016 | 1 | hayfever | extremely heart racing, anxiety, insomnia | M | 26 | 1 days 32mg 2X day | 11/25/2015 | 1 | Allergic Rhinitis | Leg pain, Hand and feet chills, loss of appetite, severe behaviour change: normally emotionally calm son became angry, extremely touchy, anything made him upset, started having temper, which he had never had before. Usually he calms down from any upsets or disappointments with hugs and empathy, but while taking Rhinocort 32 mg was inconsolable. I realized that he started this behaviour a few days after beginning Rhinocort. We discontinued and his behaviour changed back within 2-3 weeks or so. | This medication was prescribed for my 4.5 year-old son, who has had Allergic Rhinitis. While it seemed to help with those symptoms, the effect on my son's mood and emotions was frightening. Allergies seem to be better but scared about the side effects. | M | 4.5 | 3 weeks 32 2X day | 8/25/2015 | 1 | severe nasal congestion, allergies | Nose started bleeding after 2 days. Dry nose, daily headaches, weight gain. Massive increase in acid reflux symptoms. Has only improved allergy symptoms slightly. I still have to blow my nose all day long. My nose is still blocked and i have to breathe thru my mouth still. And the COST is ridiculous. After reading the other reports here i will be immediately stopping the rhinocort and never using nasal steroids again. A hole in my septum is NOT worth it. | F | 40 | 3 weeks 128mcg | 8/9/2014 | 1 | Rhinocort Aqueous | M | 17 | 3 weeks 64 2X day | 4/29/2014 Patient History | 1 | Sinusitis | Dizziness, loss of appetite, heart palpitations, racing heart, headache, insomnia, loss of focus. | I will never use this or any steroidal nasal spray again. I was running 3 miles a day, playing basketball for 45 minutes a day, and lifting weighs. I was very healthy other than the sinus issue. I started using Rhinocort because my ENT said my sinus passages were swollen. About 2 weeks after starting, I became very unfocused or slightly confused, I started getting terrible headaches, It became difficult to fall asleep and I would only sleep maybe 5-6 hrs at best. Anxiety has set in and now my heart is missing beats and racing. | M | 43 | 2 weeks 2X day | 6/3/2013 | 1 | Sinus allergies | Horrible! My daughter had used Nasonex with terrible effects like night terrors, agressiveness, nausea, joint pain... So after a year with recurrent sinus infections her doctor insisted on trying Rhinicort. She said its a lower dose so I gave it a try. After just one use, my poor baby was extremely pale, nauseous, vomiting. Complaining about the same leg pain that the Nasonex gave her and also flu like symptoms. You can't feel like that in just a few hours just by a virus... Stopped the spray and will never use any steroid spray again. The doctors never believe me when I insist the spray has this serious effects. Very frustrating. | F | 6 | 1 days | 12/6/2012 |
RHINOCORT (BUDESONIDE): This medication is used to treat certain bowel conditions (such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis).
