| 1 | Severe allergies | Severe vertigo and weakness. I could no longer function The room was spinning around me, I had to hang on to walls not to fall... + anxiety | My allergies did subside but I was no longer able to move due to the vertigo and weakness | M | 46 | 1 days 30 1X day | 9/9/2012 | 1 | Sinusitis | Woke up around 2:30am with a lower lip the size of a HOT DOG and a super rapid heart rate. Eight hours later and it's still about 20% swollen. Terrible time sleeping and really CRAZY anxiety over the past couple days. I actually thought I was starting to lose my mind. Super irritable as well. | I have never suffered any serious side effects to medication before so it took me a couple days to figure out that Nasonex was the culprit. This stuff is HARDCORE! I'd rather deal with the sinusitis. NO BUENO! | M | 31 | 7 days 50MG 1X day | 8/31/2012 | 1 | Possible sinus problem,nasal drip. | Severe nosebleed. Doctor's comment was"It does that somtimes." Have deviated septum now with permanent scab,some nasal blockage on one side. | Doctor knew I had deviated septum, didn't caution about contact. | M | 84 | 1 weeks 1X day | 8/20/2012 | 1 | Allergies | I would NOT recommend this product to anyone EVER. I noticed after a couple days of taking Nasonex I had extreme anxiety, trouble breathing, insomnia and weight loss. I had really bad mood swings, almost felt bipolar. I felt I couldnt control my thoughts and I was completely restless. I quit taking it and noticed all the symptoms went away. I asked my dad if nasal sprays could cause insomnia and after reading all these negative reviews I'm Glad I'm not the only one who experienced these negative effects because i was worried I was going crazy. I will not use this again. | F | 25 | 10 days | 8/13/2012 | 1 | nasal allergies, post nasal drip | My 8 year old son, who is usually easy going was an absolute nightmare on this medication. He had aggressive outbursts where he would scream and cry uncontrollably, throw things, kick walls, etc. I finally made the connection that his unbearable behavior had begun about 2 weeks earlier when he started the nasonex. As soon as I took him off it he was fine. I do not recommend this medication to children especially those that are sensitive to side effects. | Will never use this medication again. | M | 8 | 2 weeks 1X day | 7/31/2012 | 1 | Blocked sinus | anxiety and insomnia | F | 63 | 2 days spray 1X day | 7/21/2012 | 1 | allergys, sinus infection | Horrible anxiety and dizziness, been off 3 days and feeling better but still not normal. | F | 29 | 8 days 2Xd | 7/1/2012 | 1 | Season Allergy | Severe Headache, ringing ears, sweating, dry mouth and etc.. I won't take this ever again due side effects. | F | 45 | 5 days 50 2X day | 6/27/2012 | 1 | Sinus allergies, polyps | First day of using Nasonex, my daughter had very bad nightmares, she was up and crying all night. This is very unusual for her. She has felt extremely nauseous and dizzy for no reason. Very irritable, moody and bad tempered. I called her doctor and told me to stop the drug immediately. She took it last year for a couple of weeks with no effects, but this time it was awful. I'll never give it to her again. I've read it can damage her vision permanently. I'll try something else. | F | 5 | 3 days 50 | 6/24/2012 | 1 | Alergies | Head hurt and dizzy can't move eyes nose hert | 11 | 3 weeks | 6/5/2012 | 1 | Seasonal allergy | Weight gain (even having healthy diet and working out frequently), light nose bleed, severe headache, painful eyes | I did not know that I had nasal swelling before, and my doctor told me so. She prescribed me NASONEX and I used it for 15 days and then I couldn't continue using it because of the horrible side effects. Headaches were horrible! I couldn't concentrate at all. Besides I couldn't look up and down because my eyes were hurting. It was like having something pulling your eyes all the time and I could even see blood vessels in my eyes! Terrible! | F | 19 | 15 days 50MG 2X day | 6/2/2012 | 1 | Nasal congeestion | Scabbing which turned into a hole in my septum | Doctor told me to insert the tip farther inside my nostril... bad advice. | F | 49 | 14 days 1X day | 5/22/2012 | 1 | Sinusitis | Joint pain, insomnia, vivid dreams/nightmares, cataracts, puffy eyes, multiple styes, heart palpitations, loss of focus, anxiety, depression, weight gain, irritability, persistent cough, diarrhea, but hey I could breathe out my nose for the first time in 20 years! I stopped taking it about 10 days ago and most of the symptoms have corrected themselves. Nothing I can do about the cataracts other than surgery. The weight gain I will have to work off. | M | 42 | 8 months 1x daily | 5/19/2012 | 1 | Sinus Inflamation | After the first week, I began feeling "disassociated" from reality - in truth, it was like I was observing things going on around me but I was not an active participant. I thought it was from the sudafed I was also told to take, but I stopped the sudafed and it didn't get any better. My lips have been tingling for three days, and I have an intermittent headache. I also feel swollen around my face and neck - I can't wait for these sensations to disappear! It has been difficult to function, especially in a job that requires almost constant interactions with other people. | I will never take it again - and I am incredibly thankful that other people have shared their experiences through this forum. Only by reading the information below could I be certain that the Nasonex was causing these issues - I have never felt like this before from any medicine, and I am not typically sensitive to side effects. | M | 41 | 14 days 30 2X day | 5/16/2012 | 1 | Seasonal Allergies | Dizzy spells, blurred vision, tingling or numbness in legs at night, anxiety, tired, difficulty sleeping. | It seems to work well to address my sinus problems but the side effects have been horrible. I have stopped using it but for only one day. Based on others experiences I expect things to improve slowly now that I have stopped. | M | 49 | 21 days 1X day | 5/9/2012 | 1 | To prevent sinus allergies | Had extensive sinus surgery ,nasal septum repair and bone spur removal 12 weeks ago...after post op eight weeks placed back on Nasonex for allergy prevention,,,,,now having constant post nasal drip, insomnia, heatr palpitations and night sweats . Now the area over my cheek bones is puffy and swollen...last night my husband asked why my face look swollen and asked if I might need plastic surgery because of the " bad affects of the sinus surgery" Only started the swelling after using Nasonex.... After reading this forum and because of my own current experience I will not take this drug again! | F | 56 | 21 days 1X day | 5/2/2012 | 1 | sinius problems | had the worst lightheadedness feeling ..been off for two days feel alot better still a little lighthead though | M | 33 | 5 days 1X day | 4/28/2012 | 1 | sinitus plugged sinuses | Ive been taking this when needed for a few years just to irrigate my nasal passages but 3 months ago my ear nose and throat DR wanted to operate to open a passage and due to the risks he suggested I try this 3 times a day for a few months and see the outcome. The first thing I noticed were headaches as Im not a sufferer, then became frequent almost daily. My face and eyes became puffy ichty and sore and ringing ears. I had problems focusing and my memory was not at its best. I thought I was losing my mind, becoming depressed, and withdrawn. I stopped taking it and within a week all was back to normal......OH yeah, weight gain...... | 57 | 2 months 2 3X day | 4/25/2012 | 1 | Allergies | DON'T USE NASONEX IT GAVE ME CATARACTS. NO HISTORY OF THEM IN MY FAMILY. MY EYE DR. SAID IT WAS FROM USING NASONEX FOR SEVERAL YEARS. | DR'S SEEM TO FORGET TO TELL YOU ABOUT THIS SIDE EFFECT. CATARACT SURGERY IS COSTLY. | F | 50 | 2X day | 4/23/2012 | 1 | Sinus/Allergies after head cold | Male pattern hair growth, ANXIETY, metal taste, puffy eyes & cheeks, dry eyes/ pressure, nervous, photosensitive, FATIGUE, loss of cognition & memory, ear pain, joint & muscle pain, nose bleeds, jittery, WEAK, constipated, vision loss, weight gain | Thank goodness for this site. Both myself and my family thought I was decaying rapidly &/or going insane. I'm a 29 year old woman, this caused hair to grow & darken in between my breasts...plus major flu symptoms and poor brain function. Had constant herpes outbreaks in mouth. Awful drug!!! | F | 29 | 6 weeks 1 spray 1X day | 4/13/2012 |
