| 4 | allergies year round | After taking nasonex for around a month I got a lump on the side of my neck which I thought was a mole.Several months later I got a huge lump on the side of my face. My GP put me on antibiotics which did very little. More lumps followed and I was sent to a dermatologist who also did little to help. These lumps were strange in that they formed almost overnight coming up suddenly and were hugh. When I traced back I realized the first one appeared after I started the nasonex. I finally looked it up on the internet and found acne as a side effect. I told my allergist who said this was highly unlikely-it is only in your nasal passages. Before these lumps I was very pleased with Nasonex. Now I am trying Astelin but I feel groggy. I was taking both Allegra and the Nasonex and feeling very alert. | I would definitely bring up and research any strange symptom immediately with any drug being taken. I rarely had problems with medications before even though I am pre-diabetic for over 40 years. | F | 64 | 8 months 50mcg 1X day | 12/31/2011 | 1 | Plugged ears, plugged nose, scratchy throat | No side effects, just utterly worthless. | M | 3 weeks Twice a day | 12/24/2011 | 5 | My son has allergies | None | M | 11 | 9 years 30MG | 12/16/2011 | 5 | Severe allergies | None | F | 23 | 2 years 2 puffs/no | 12/15/2011 | 5 | seasonal allergies | Works great when used properly and for what it is designed for. Too bad we have so many people who want to blame a nasal spray for their poor overall health, bad diets and lack of exercise. | M | 53 | 4 years | 12/5/2011 | 1 | Nasal polyp | Son started to cough for e week and even vomitted. Do not see how the med actually helps to stop his coughing at nite. Did asked e doc if there's any side effect n he answered minimal?! came across tis site n refuses to give e med to my son. I dont like seeing so many bad review! My son is only 3... not yet able to rationalise or explain why or if he is hurting smwhere bad. Wouldnt recommmend it for kids to use it. | M | 3 | 2 days 1x | 11/22/2011 | 5 | Allergies/Sinuses | No side effects at all | I have been using Nasonex for about 2 years now. I was told to use one puff in each nostril 2x per day but I only need to use it at night. I sleep good and have no problems at all. | F | 42 | 2 years 50MG 2X day | 11/15/2011 | 1 | DIZZINESS, VERTIGO | head aches, ear pain, frequent sinus infections, anxiety, shaking , high blood pressure, fast heart beat. chest pain, and soar throat and joint pain . | know the side effects before you use it | F | 35 | 2 months 50MCG 2X day | 11/15/2011 | 1 | clogged Eustachian tubes w/earache | At first heart palpitations, but they went away after a week. Head rushes, feeling kind of spaced out, dizzy, weak. After 1 week, the diarrhea started. Now I have constant stomach cramps, I never know when it's going to be diarrhea or just gas, nausea. After 2 weeks of trying to tough it out, the diarrhea is worse than ever so I'm quitting. I would rather have the earaches than have diarrhea so bad that I can't leave the house. | F | 36 | 3 weeks 50 mcg 1X day | 11/1/2011 | 1 | Allergies | anxiety, cushings, high cortisal, weight gain, facial hair, muscle craps, joint pain, blurred vision | I was taking this drug once a day for months when I developed a sinus infection. My Dr. told me to bump up my dosage and to take it at night. I blindly started using it 2X a day. My sinuses cleared up but my immune system just shut down and I developed cushings. I am really upset I have gained a ton of weight and my ACTH is really really high. If anyone has any guess to how long it will take for the side effects to go away. Please email me. | F | 33 | 6 months 100 mcg 2X day | 10/27/2011 | 1 | Allergies | Intense ADVERSE reaction to what is supposed to be allergy relieving....in 15 minutes I developed itchy eyes, intense congestion, sneezing, tight throat, coughing...all the things I WAS TRYING TO AVOID by taking an allergy medication!!! | I would not recommend this to anyone. | F | 33 | 2 days 200mcg 1X day | 10/26/2011 | 1 | Chronic runny nose | This drug gave me a horrible pounding headache like no other. It woke me up out of a dead sleep and I couldn't get back to sleep until I took 3 advil. I also developed an upper respiratory infection the same time I started this drug. I have not had a cold in ages and at first I thought it was a coincidence, but once I stopped this drug, my hacking cough and runny nose started to subside. I should mention that I also had the same type of infection when I started using Omnaris last year, but stopped taking that because of the side effects also. Then the kicker was last night I woke up and my heart was beating a mile a minute. I am a very healthy individual and just got a complete physical and clean bill of health. Oh and should I mention the restless sleep and weird as heck dreams. This drug is terrible...I'd rather have a runny nose. I stopped this drug after 4 days. | F | 48 | 4 days 2 puffs 1X day | 10/24/2011 | 1 | sinus allergies | loss of taste and smell now for over 6 mos. | Can they be sued? Lawsuits? How to reverse-I want my taste and smell back!!!!! Feel free to contact me asap 10/18/11 at [email protected] | F | 43 | 21 days 2X day | 10/20/2011 | 1 | Nasal polyps | After ten days I started getting sharp pains low down in my stomach, and feeling very weak and tired and lost my appetite. The stomach ache came and went, but a few days later I started vomiting and was very sick for several hours. I had not eaten anything that might have caused this and began to wonder if it was the Nasonex. I looked it up and found that severe persistent vomiting could be a side effect. I was unable to eat anything for 3 days and still feel weak several days later. I am recovering now but will never take Nasonex again. | Nasonex did seem effective in reducing my nasal polyps and helping my breathing but it is not worth it. I think this medicine is harmful and dangerous | F | 62 | 14 days 1 spray 2X day | 10/13/2011 | 1 | Nasal Congestion/Allergies | Insomnia, headache | Helped with nasal congestion but I can't sleep. Wish I had known to not take this medicine before bed! I took it last night and had a restless sleep and woke up with a headache. Took again tonight and now I am wide awake. I can't imagine I will be able to fall asleep anytime soon. Do not take at night! | F | 41 | 2 days 1X day | 10/12/2011 | 1 | Seasonal Allergy | insomnia, HEAD RUSHES and flushing every 60 seconds, irritability, cold sores, face tingling, weak muscles all over, nosebleed. | I thought I was going to have a stroke or that my blood pressure was high etc. Otherwise healthy.... Went to urgent care and had a bunch of labs drawn.... They said I was fine. I know I'm not. Also weird is that my thyroid labs t have been normal for years have gone crazier than when I was first diagnosed and those labs a month ago were fine. So glad to find this site!!! | F | 45 | 3 weeks 1 spray 2X day | 10/1/2011 | 5 | Nasal Congestion | Absolutely none. I have been taking this medication for five months and these have been the happiest, most peaceful times of my life. I have slept really well and rarely wake up at night now. I no longer feel tired from allergies and I haven't noticed any of the side effects below. | M | 25 | 5 months 200 mcg 1X day | 9/24/2011 | 4 | Hayfever | I would usually suffer from hayfever at this time of year (spring) but since taking nasonex I have not had so much as a runny nose which is brilliant HOWEVER I have recently gotten a coldsore out of the blue, as I have read here has also happened to others taking nasonex, and now today I have woken with numbness/pain on the left side of my face (same side that my coldsore is also on) like I have been slapped and my sinus is extremely painful and the pain is also around my left eye. Also some sensitivity on the left side of my body. | F | 31 | 4 weeks 2X day | 9/22/2011 | 1 | Chronic Sinusitis | Increase in high blood preasure, headache, mucle pain above knees. I was on the Diovan for a couple of weeks and then I got off the medication. Ever since I start taking Nasonex my blood pressure came back. The Nasonex was prescribed by my physician to treat my Chronic Sinusitis. | M | 34 | 1 weeks 50 mg 1X day | 9/22/2011 | 1 | Chronic Sinusitis | High Blood Pressure, Heart Palipitations, Shortness of Breath, feeling like I cant get enough O2 in my lungs, Anxious and generally irritable. | Went to the Dr. yesterday - I have just been feeling awful for 3 weeks. Was at the ENT 2 weeks ago for a followup for my Chronic Sinusitis. I had started taking Nasonex 2 sprays each nostril before bed. Nurse took my BP and told me it was high 152/100 - she took it 4 more times and each time it came back high from 160 -150/100 range. She told me I should follow up with my GP regarding it. Went to my GP yesterday for the heart palipitations and shortness of breath - and she wanted to put me on Blood Pressure Medication - explained that I haven't been feeling well, and was at the ENT 2 weeks ago and they told me I have high bloop pressure.. I'm 40 - work out 6 days a week biking and running. I'm 5'2 and weigh 118lbs. My BP has always been normal - until Nasonex. She told me it's not the nasonex and I should start taking Beta blockers - well - I'm not taking beta blockers, or Nasonex anymore. Too much of a coincidence for me to believe that I just got high blood pressure out of the blue. I don't feel much better yet, but I can feel my body slowly coming back.I'm convinced this is all realated.. | F | 40 | 21 days 2 sprays 1X day | 9/21/2011 |
