 5  Very bad allergies I so seem to feel more hungry and have put on about 7 lbs since taking nasonex. I have had a few more cramps around my cycle time but I did suffer bad PMT anyway. Nasonex has really worked for me. I started having problems after I suffered a miscarriage last year and my allergies went a bit crazy. I now have a very high allery to my cat, dust mites and my general allery reading was 20 times higher than it should be. The doctor said he had never seen such high allery results. I was getting severe headaches, eyes were swelling up and terrible earache, but nasonex has made me feel so much better. I was a bit worried when I read all the comments on this site but I must be one of the lucky ones. F 34 5 months

 5  Indoor/Outdoor/Seasonal Allergies I experience consistent clear breathing with ABSOLUTELY ZERO side effects. I'm sad to read about so many poor experiences. I had been getting by with normal Claritin for years and after rescuing a dog in August of 2013, I began suffering from long term sinus congestion. My sinus' were dry and what seemed like "swollen shut". I then decided to change to Allegra, and tried that for a month, then Zyrtec the following month with zero improvment. I then decided I had to go back to the old allergy pills I used to take with the "D" on the end... spent a fortune on Claritin - D and still could not breathe out of my nose. I broke down one day and finally went to the doc who prescribed me Flonase and I started improving. I was back to my normal unobstructed breathing again. After that ran out I found it far more convenient to purchase Nasonex - which has been just as effective. I can't imagine my life without this product. I am a HUGE advocate and have turned a couple friends who felt hopeless in improving their allergy symptoms into believers after they tried it. F 34 1 years

 5  constant congestion/sinus headaches Leaves a bit of a bad taste at back of my mouth if I don't drink or eat anything after. I had been suffering from year-round sinus congestion and sinus headaches for 2 years. Had previously been prescribed Flonase but that spray did not help at all. I later had a successful septoplasty done but this provided only a slight benefit. After the surgery, my doctor prescribed Nasonex since the surgery hadn't resolved my symptoms. Nasonex worked instantly and has eliminated by headaches and made my congestion 90% better. I finally have my life back again! I was surprised how well it worked considering that Flonase did nothing.

 4  nasal irritation due to cyst I have been retaining water, becoming rather bloated (fingers, ankles, face). I assume its from the steroid in Nasonex, but I haven't yet been able to clarify that as a side effect of the drug. However, I am taking nothing else, so it must be the Nasonex. The burning & itching in my nose/sinuses has subsided. Sneezing has decreased to almost nothing. F 34 2 weeks

 4  Ear Infection Frequent nosebleeds. My doc prescribed this to help an ear infection, and it definitely dried up my runny nose within a couple days. However, prolonged use led to frequent nose bleeds out of the right side of my nose (never the left) nearly every day. M 34 6 weeks

 3  chronic sinus allergies Caused a shingles outbreak on my face resulting in some nerve damage to my eye/distorted vision). Did suppress the nasal allergy response however. I would recommend getting a shingles/chickenpox vaccine prior to taking this medication. M 34 6 weeks

 1  Stuffy nose Second day: severe shortness of breath, severe chest pains and what felt like heart palpitations. Third day: severe lethargy, horrible burning in nasal passages and eyes, confusion, shortness of breath and constant intense tingling of hands, arms, legs, chest and face. I would recommend stopping at first sign of chest pain or shortness of breath. Product not worth it. F 34 3 days

 1  Hay fever I have had hay fever the last couple of springs, but I usually don’t take anything to treat it. This year it was so bad so I decided to take nasonex. I’m so upset that I took it. I stoped taking it a week ago but I still extremely bad side effects. I have really bad heart palpitations, I’ve had dizzy bouts, sore eyes, a feeling in my chest like I can’t breath and anxiety. How long will it take for the symptoms to stop? F 34 4 days

 1  sinus congestion anxiety and depression. Complete panic attack. insomnia. i would take big breaths of air in through my mouth but felt that i wasn't getting oxygen. It took 4 hours before the effects subsided to a manageable level. I thought i was losing my mind. Almost went to the ER. I have never had anxiety or depression before and hope to never experience it again. If i had not Googled "Nasonex", i would have thought i was crazy. I am only 34 and in great physical condition. I have never had a side effect with any drug before. Scary,i didnt think nose spray could cause a mental breakdown. M 34 1 days

 1  Sinus Problems I took this for two days and didn't notice any side effects, but it didn't improve my condition, so I stopped taking it. 5 days later I had to go to the docs because my sinus problems clearly developed into an infection. My Doctor gave me antibiotics but told me to continue the Nasonex, so I gave it another try, and shortly after, I developed a headache that was worse than before, funny taste in my mouth, an anxiousness :( I will not take it again! Going to try acupuncture treatment instead!!' F 34 1 days
