| 5 | Alergies | none | I am 35 years old and have severely suffered from Seasonal Allergies which start in February and continue till August. Last year I was prescribed Nasonex for the first time and omg...what a difference. I read many bad reviews on this site so i thought i would give a positive one. Everyone is different and it's worked well for me. Maybe the difference being is I have extreme enviromental allergies and any improvment noted is better then what I was going though in the past. | 1 years 2X day | 4/14/2012 | 5 | Hayfever, Dust Mite | None whatsoever. | This is a brilliant nasal spray. I have not had any side effects at all and am surprised by the other negative comments. I drive for a living and other sprays have made me drowsy but this keeps me fully functional and I can breath like I never breathed before. | M | 6 months | 5/18/2007 | 5 | | 12/30/2008 | 5 | Chronic Sinusitis | Dry throat now and then. | Nasonex has allowed me to breath normally for two years straight with no serious side effects. Taking this drug is not ideal but I can't imagine how I used to manage without it. I have since dropped my box of kleenex per day habit and love the fact that I am no longer dealing with a stuffed up nose every single day. | M | 2 years | 5/19/2009 | 5 | Sinusitis and drainage problems | It works better than your standard sinus sprays. You don't need much for it to work (once a day, one spray per nostril). It works best if you use a nasal saline douche first. I thought it was pretty good. It's expensive. And as it's a steroid, you can't use it long-term. | I have a deviated septum and turbonate problems and this helps breathing, particularly at night if you have conjestion. | 14 days 1X day | 4/8/2014 | 5 | Seasonal allergies, post-nasal drip | None. | Nasonex did not help right away like a magic bullet. But my doctor had prepared me. Once it started workin, I felt sooo much better..! Congestion, headaches and PND went away. I stopped using it because I had a couple of years during which my allergies did not effect me so much. I'll go back to it. | F | 1 days | 4/8/2015 | 4 | Alergies | Occasional bleeding nose. | I haven't had a problem with Nasonex but might have a solution for those who have had some minor side effects or are thinking of using it. My doctor was VERY emphatic about not "snorting" Nasonex into my lungs. Some people have said that they had tight chests and sore throats. This might be a very real side effect for some but for others, the medicine should never get that far. Lightly breathing in through your nose while spraying is enough. DON'T spray and snort the stuff into your lungs like asthma medicine. Also, I found that after one bottle, I switched to one spray per nostril--works fine for me and I can finally breath through my nose after years of nasal blockage. | M | 2 years | 7/15/2009 | 4 | nasal allergies | Sleeplessness which I solved easily by taking the medication in the morning. | You people who think this medication causes 'roid rage are so off-base, it's laughable. You hear steroids and think they're all the same. The kind of steroids that are responsible for 'roid rage are called anabolic steroids. This is a corticosteroid. They are entirely different. Nasonex is a safe drug. It can cause sleeplessness so if it does so, take it in the morning. It works well. The power of suggestion is an incredible thing. | F | | 11/1/2007 | 4 | Allergies | none | I think this stuff works best with just sporadic use. I had most of my allergies symptoms disappear after the second day, so i stopped taking it. My allergies symptoms didn't reappear for about a month, so I took one more hit and that bought me another month of relief. I suspect that the daily use recommendation is overkill that results in bad side effects, and is probably just to sell more medication. | M | 90 days | 12/9/2008 | 4 | | 2/27/2005 | 4 | | 4/5/2001 | 3 | migraines/allergies. | My son has severe, weather-triggered migraines. We were given Nasonex by a pharmacist in Italy and it seemed to have broken a headache he'd had almost without relief for a month. We've been using it again for the last 11 days (1 squirt per nostril) and, again, it seems to be helping. Is this just a coincidence? He does not have serious nasal blockage or sinusitus. Any similar experiences? Please contact. | M | | 10/28/2004 | 3 | sinusitis | heart palpitations, tight chest, shortness of breath lying down and at the start of exercise, facail rash (after a couple of months) that is related to steriod spray use. | worked to open sinuses, also decreased infections. but palpatations were unnerving. stopped the drug. | | 1/4/2007 | 3 | allergies | hyperactive, jittery, legs shaking, aggressive and angry | My 10 year old son began taking this medication just 4 days ago and even though it's done wonders for his allergies, he's been shaking his legs uncontrollably and has been extremely hyper and jittery. Tonight however he had an extremely aggressive outburst none like I've ever seen and he threw a rock at my head!!! This is frightening and I'm taking him off the medication immediately. | 4 days | 6/17/2007 | 3 | allergies | | 7/3/2005 | 2 | bad tast in mouth, nausea, and acid reflux....stopped taking it for four days and nausea continues...anyone else had this problem with nausea and lasting after you stop for days. | F | 22 days | 7/12/2008 | 2 | allergies/congestion | Sore throat, shortness of breath,tired/sleepy often, cold/flu symtoms, neck, arm , shoulder aches and pains. I would not recommend this drug to anyone w/o careful analysis of pros and cons.The pharmycist didn't know anything about the counterindication when I contacted him.They just sell the stuff . | This is a steroid not a NSAID | M | 30 days | 7/9/2008 | 2 | Hay Fever | Trouble sleeping, extreme tiredness, racing mind, forgetfulness, constipation and severly bloated stomach, itching, swolen ankles, shortness of breath. Although I can't say for sure that these 'side effects' are caused by the Nasonex until I stop taking the drug and monitor over a period of time but it seems that it is a possiblity and I can find no other reason. | Unfortunately Nasonex has cured most of my allergy symptoms which is a dilemma, the alleged side effects are mostly in line with others apart from the swolen ankles and the constipation. I have been taking this for two months now and all the side effects have built up over this time, before hand I was healthy but with Hayfever! I will discontinue use of Nasonex as from today and see if the problems persist or desist and post again in say 4 weeks time. | F | 2 months | 7/22/2009 | 1 | prescribed by ent doctors | i used nasonex for 1 week and experienced loss of balance, neck pain, palpitation, digestive problem and difficulty of breathing. after not using it for 2 days i felt better but when i use it the day after i felt neck pain and headache at the evening | Be wise to use this product | M | 7 days | 7/30/2019 | 1 | allergies | terrible congestion. especially in one nostril. i have been having anxiety attacks that are scary. terrible headaches. fatigue and depression. lose of appetite. high blood pressure. and now i have a upper respiratory infection and i just got over one a few weeks ago. | I just threw away my prescription of nasonex and have no intention of ever taking it again. Anyone listening! DO NOT TAKE THIS MEDICATION. There is a natural remedy for allergies and it works much better than any pharmacitical garbage. Its called CAYENNE. Drink a warm cup of Cayenne (tsp) with lemon water every morning and you'd be surprised how better you feel. It clears up congestion immediately and you have an overall sense of well being. Best of all it is NATURAL. God Bless you all. | F | 8 days | 5/26/2009 |
