 3  sinitus Twitching nerves, severe itching, hot ears, some tingling in fingers first few days. I was given a nasal spray to help my sinitus which was causing bad headaches and a badly blocked nasal tube. It made me itch really badly, even after i stopped taking it - i would itch everyday. So she gave me anti-histemines to stop the itching and also gave me rhinocort and said i wouldn't itch from it. It makes me itch a hell of a lot. It drives me insane - there's nothing worse than itching. So i take doses of rhinocort and an allergy pill at the same time so i don't itch. My ears get hot, nerves in my fingers and face twitch for ages. The only reason i gave it a rating of 3 was because i no longer get the horrible headaches and thick mucus up the left nasal passage. It's all a bit of a nightmare, though. I hate spraying chemicals up my nose. And it looks like i'll be doing it for the rest of my life. ): F 18

 1  Allergies For the past week, I haven't been able to sleep well at all which is driving me crazy. And I have been having tightness in my sinus which is triggering headaches that would make me vomit. Also, I have been waking up with headaches. I have never experienced anything like this ever before. And the only medication I have been taking is Rhinocort every single day for about a month now. It did stop my sneezing in the morning. I would rather sneeze every single morning than having this crazy feeling from not sleeping five nights in a row now. Today, I stopped taking it--and vowed never to take it again. F 42

 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

 1  Allergy Although it cleared up my sinuses, Rhinocort also kept me awake all night. My physician provided me with Allegra D, Singular and Rhinocort and said I could take them together, if necessary. Allegra did nothing, Singular seemed the most effective. One day when neither Allegra nor Singular together was working, I also inhaled the Rhinocort. The relief was nearly immediate, but sleep never came that night and literally saw every hour on the clock until morning. M 46 1 days

 1  rhinitis I used this spray for a year. The doctor told me to spray once daily. For a two week period, I was unable to aquire the spray and noticed my rhinitis was gone. I thought it was a coincidence and went back on the spray. My symptoms immediately returned. F 41 1 days

 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

 2  decongestent Within 5 minutes of using the drug I felt anxious and panicky. The next day (and last day) I used it I had a panic attack that sent me to the emergency room due to increased heart rate and very high blood pressure. Even though this probably is not a common side effect, it didn't work well for me. F 42 2 days

 2  ear pain, sinus congestion Nausea, headache, dizziness Worked great on my sinus congestion but I had significant nausea, headache, dizziness, and generally felt out of it (spent much of the time curled up in fetal position on my couch). We tried cutting the dosage but I still felt horrible. Today is the first day I am off it and my congestion is back but I feel so much better with the other symptoms. F 38 3 days
