| 1 | Glad I found this site, for I am having similiar bad side effects. Since there are so many of you dealing with anxiety, panic, heart rate, shakes, etc, can I ask what you all did to confirm this since it appears no dr believes this product is harmful? Anyone prove this with a blood/urine test? Has anyone complained to the Nasonex company? I appreciate any input to help me on my journey. Thank you | F | 42 | 50 mcg 1X day | 5/25/2011 | 1 | Vasomotor/Mixed Rhinitis | Dry mouth, bad taste. | This nasal spray is the most tolerable of the nasal spray geared toward alergies, but if you do not have alergies and were misdiagnosed to have alergy problems like I was, then it is Completely Worthless! If you are reading these ratings for Nasonex, then there is a chance that you are like me and have Vasomotor or Mixed Rhinitis like me. At least, I could speak from experiance that this drug did not help my condition at all. I recieved more relief from the sinus headaches from an over the counter nasal spray called Sinus Buster, then I did from this drug. I helped relieve a tiny amount of congestion but thats it....at least with my condition. | M | 31 | 3 weeks 50 1X day | 5/21/2011 | 1 | Allergies | For the past two days, I was plagued with a killer migraine-like headache. Once I started looking at this site, I realized that the blurry vision, nausea, and sleeplessness I've been experiencing over the past few days are also probably due to the Nasonex. | I'm really alarmed and disappointed! When the Nasonex initially seemed to be clearing up my allergies, I was very hopeful that it was going to be a good solution for me. But the migraine headache it gave me was completely debilitating. Thought I was going to collapse in the drug store while I was trying to buy migraine medicine! Watch out for this drug!! It's evil! | F | 46 | 7 days 1X day | 5/19/2011 | 1 | Allergies | I started taking this medication for my allergies, was told it had minimal side effects and glaucoma was not one of them. I now have glaucoma and there is no way to fix this condition. Other side effects that I experience were dizziness, dry mouth and sinuses, nausea, bloody nose and ear infections. I did some research and learned that the company had archived the side affect of glaucoma because of the rarity of patients getting it. I would like to persue a lawsuit to recover some of the pain and suffering that I will endure for the years to come. I will most definately lose my sight over time, and someone should be held accountable for their mistakes. | F | 42 | 4 years 50 mcg 2X day | 5/16/2011 | 1 | Polyp | Massive panic attack - dry throat | I know what panic attacks are - because i have suffered from attack because of a depression a couple of years ago - and was treated for it. I have not ever experienced that severe form of attack, ever, as I did after using nasonex for only 2 days. I knew i had to get of the drug again and stopped using it the next day. I haven't had any attacks since, and now have to find an alternative - but who to ask? my MD will probably not tell me, what I ought not use - I don't trust them in matter of perscriptions - is it the best drug or is it the drug perscribed beacause they are paid well to perscribe it.....call me paranoid! | F | 46 | 3 days 50 mg 2X day | 5/14/2011 | 1 | Allergies | I have severe allergies during spring, the allergist prescribed Nasonex. My allergies are gone, but I was starting to have severe headaches, nausea and dizzy spells. I stopped taking the medication and 3 days later I still feel severe vertigo/dizziness and nausea. | Wost medication ever! I am extremely dizzy and it wont go away! Thank God for this website because I thought I was going crazy or having a panic attack!!! | F | 36 | 10 days 2 2X day | 5/13/2011 | 1 | Allergy by pollen | firts I start feeling nervous after one or two hour I feel cold, hard palpitations, then I get into a panic situation. I have to suspend this medication. The 3 days I used it I felt that way. I got real scare when I got hard palpitation because I feel pain on my chest and left shoulder. | M | 26 | 3 days 50 MCG 1X day | 5/13/2011 | 1 | Allergies and sinus headaches | Headaches, nosebleeds even after a day of using it I still experience nosebleeds after a week of discontinuing use, sinus pain/pressure, sore eyes and a burning sensation in my nose. | F | 27 | 1 days 100ug 1X day | 5/4/2011 | 1 | sinus congestion | intense bout of double vision. | i should have known better than to take a steroid but my doctor who is great assured me there would be no side effects... started taking nasonex because of stuffy sinuses and thick post nasal drip. helped a lot at first. then one day out of the blue i just couldn't see "straight." i had intense double vision. it was terrifying, i thought i had a mini stroke. it lasted about a minute but seemed like hours. i somehow kept myself calm, reassured myself it would go away and eventually it did. i've had no other symptoms of TIA with speech, balance, weakness, etc. could it have been the nasonex? i'd rather live with stuffy head than ever have that happen again. got a neti pot and doing saline irrigation to flush allergens out. no more steroids | F | 50 | 7 days 30 2X day | 4/29/2011 | 1 | Allergies | pressure in eye area and headaches. | I wake up each morning with a headache about 5 or 5:30am each morning when take Nasonex. Gets very old so am going to go off of it. | F | 34 | 4 months 20 1X day | 4/29/2011 | 1 | runny nose -allergy | Insomnia, nervousness, anger, gained weight, general uneasyness | I never thought Nasonex could be to blame for my problems. Now it all makes sense. The sleeping problems have been terrible. The persons responsible for this drug should be wacked around the head with a marble statue. I am never taking this again. | M | 48 | 8 years 2 sprays 2X day | 4/27/2011 | 1 | sinus and nasal congestion | none while taking it, except for a bit of blood in discharge. | my perscription ran out, so i stopped taking it...couple of days went by and i started experiencing weird head rush/heart palpitations, stiff neck, jaw pain, very bad sinus pressure (felt like my face was being pulled down, ringing in ears, insomnia, balance was a bit off) are these withdrawl symptoms? if so how long do they last, because i've been having them for about 3 1/2 weeks. I've been to two doctors and none of them could help me. any suggestions? | F | 17 | 3 months 30 ml 2X day | 4/27/2011 | 1 | Sinus infection | Headaches, dizziness, blurred vision and severe panic and anxiety attacks | Initially, this drug worked really well. After about 3 weeks of taking it my sinuses seemed cured with no more pressure and congestion. I stopped taking for about a week and then started taking it again for one week. It didn't work so well this time. I got REALLY bad headaches like someone had a tension rod in my head putting pressure on both sides and really bad sinus pain and pressure. I also started having severe anxiety and panic attacks that felt like I was going to lose my mind. My vision also became blurred which I thought was due to sinus problems but now I can see it was this horrid drug! Please do not take a drug just because a doctor tells you to take it. Do your own research first.........I wish that I had looked at this site before taking it. | F | 39 | 30 days 30mg 1X day | 4/5/2011 | 1 | Sinus Congestion | Bloating, Severe headaches, paranoia, anger, insomina, neck pain, back pain., jaw pain, constipation, fatigue, severe facial swelling, vision problems. | I am 22-year old healthy male. Nasonex was given to me as an innocent drug for sinus relief. Instead, it gave me horrible panic attacks, suicidal thoughts, rage, my face is severely swollen, insomnia. As a result, I got into horrible arguments with family and friends, and I alienated myself from the world. I got into a car accident. I have lost my sense of taste. Thank you all for your postings and they are why I am posting. I lost two months of my life and much more to this awful drug. If you feel anything like this, STOP THIS DRUG IMMEDIATELY. I wish I had known earlier. I hate this world of poison. | M | 22 | 2 months 30 2X day | 3/29/2011 | 1 | Allergic rhinitis | I had severe insomnia, dry mouth, coughing, severe congestion | After using Nasoxex, I was sicker than before taking it. I missed a whole month of work because of insomnia and congestion at night that just could not be relieved. I had anxiety and panic attacks. This medication cost me loss of income and I had to withdraw from college courses due to taking this medicine because of absences. I stopped taking this medication and then was told by the ENT doctor it takes two to three weeks to work. After week three, I stopped altogether. It takes time to get yourself back on track after stopping this medication. | F | 49 | 21 days 30mg 1X day | 3/29/2011 | 1 | Sinus infection | Insomnia | The first day I took this, I only took one dose. Two sprays in each nostril. I had some trouble sleeping at night, took me about 2-3 hours. I was also taking nighttime cold medicine which normally makes me fall asleep pretty fast. The second day, I took 2 sprays in each nostril, twice a day, so 4 sprays. I could not sleep at ALL the entire night. I didn't have any other symptoms bothering me, except a cough and headache (not from Nasonex). Tried everything and could not relax and fall asleep. Also felt somewhat anxious. I stopped taking it because I need to sleep! I can't imagine what I'd be like if I took it for more than the two days I did. | F | 21 | 2 days 2 sprays 2X day | 3/27/2011 | 1 | Sinus Infection | increased heart rate, anxiety/panicky feeling, major sleep disturbance, stomach ache, some dizziness | I am SO glad I found this site! ...thought I was going crazy for a while here. This feeling of constant heart flutters and anxiety (I don't really know how to describe it) is HORRIBLE! I didn't realize it was my heart racing until I finally felt my pulse. Geez. Why aren't there any warnings about this on all of those commercials!??? | F | 27 | 3 days 2 puffs 2X day | 3/26/2011 | 1 | Polyps, Allergic Rhinitis | Original symptoms were in my right ear only, feeling like at high altitude. As it turned out it caused by polyps in my right sinuses. Been taking Nasonex for 5 days and the nose is clear, but developed ear pressure in both ears. | Going to stop the spray right now and will try natural alternatives. Grateful for this site and for all of you who comments. Watch with care and suspicion whenever you start taking any drugs. This is all business, no one else cares about us if we don't. | F | 54 | 5 days 2 puffs 2X day | 3/22/2011 | 1 | Persistant cough | Dr. not sure why I have this cough and gave me a sample to try for a week. By 3rd day, I was itching like crazy all around my ankles and my wrists. I itched during the night without realizing what I was doing and they were bleeding the next day. I stopped right after that. Still coughing! | F | 63 | 3 days 2X day | 3/21/2011 | 1 | Allergies | First night after used Nasonex, had headache in middle of night and took an aspirin, Second night after used Nasonex had headache in middle of night and took an aspirin. Next day had a moderate stroke. | Heart specialist said Nasonex ABSOLUTELY did not cause stroke, family doctor said Nasonex probably did not cause stroke. I HAVE A DIFFERENT OPINION. This happened 4 years ago when I was 73. | M | 77 | 2 days Not sure 1X day | 2/22/2011 |
