| 2 | Allergic Rhinitis | Pain in left breast | I noticed after taking that I had an ache in my left breast. I noticed this issue with Flonase as well. I am concerned about this side effect and will check with the doctor. | F | 1 days 1X day | 5/13/2015 | 1 | allergiez | I got so so sick from this stuff. My runny nose and sneezing got worse, and I vomited lots. Terrible experience, and it was super expensive. | F | 2 days | 3/12/2015 | 1 | "roid rage" type symptoms | the steroids in veramyst are called corticosteroids, and they can cause "roid rage" type side effects, such as aggression, depression, mania, violent reactions, and even psychosis. Do a google search on "steroid psychosis" or sidefxdrugs and you will see the side effects corticosteroids can cause. | | 1/21/2008 | 4 | stop rebound congestion | Increased nosebleeds/nasal sores | I've been using OTC nasal decongestant for a year (up to 1 dose per/3 hours each day.) After about a month and a half on Veramyst I noticed that the frequency that I needed to administer the decongestant dropped to twice a day, then once, and finally none at all. There is still a little stuffyness when laying down/sleeping but it's still easy enough to breathe through that without a issues | M | 19 | 4 months | 1/5/2009 | 5 | Perennial vasomotor rhinitis | Slight and very occasional headaches. Very slight and occasional lower-back pain. First dose made me jittery and anxious, but the symptoms subsided. | In combination with Allegra, Veramyst (tradename Avamys in Latam) has completely changed my lifestyle. I am extremely satisfied with the results. It takes about 3 or 4 days for Veramyst to have a full effect. The anxiety and insomnia I experienced the first day went away and now I can actually sleep and rest, which the rhinitis did not let me accomplish before. | F | 22 | 6 months 27,5 MG 1X day | 3/11/2011 | 1 | nose congestion due to 'allergies' | 2 sprays per nostril daily.. First started waking up in middle of the night with crazy anxiety for the first time in a few years. Started having trouble getting to sleep. Didn't feell like myself anymore clouded mind. Now extreme shoulder pain for last couple days cannot move shoulder have stopped taking it today. | M | 22 | 10 days | 10/19/2014 | 2 | major allergys | back pain between shoulder blades. that moved to chest | About 2 days after taking veramyst, I had major back pain between my shoulder blades. That slowly moved to my side and then my chest. I had no idea what was causing this until I forgot to take the spray one day and the pain lessened. I decided to not take it the next day just to see what would happen. for the first time in weeks I was able to move with out tiers in my eyes from the pain. It took weeks for the pain to dissipate. A month later after I thought I was better, I got sick again and decide to take veramyst once more but in much smaller amounts. It has been 3 days and the exact pain is back. DO NOT TAKE THIS SPRAY. I went from two sprays in each nostril in the morning and at night. To one spray in each nostril in the morning and I got to say, the pain is the same. Oh and it didn't clear me up at all. (this spray sucks) | F | 23 | | 8/6/2009 | 1 | Allergies | I began using Veramyst (2 sprays in each nostril daily) in April 2008 for allergies. I stopped using the medication in April 2009 because it was causing my nose to bleed. Since I have stopped taking Veramyst in April 2009, I have had 3 sinus infections, spaced about 3 weeks apart. I believe the sinus infections are due to the fact I stopped taking Veramyst. I have had one or two sinus infections in the past, but never three in one year spaced so close together. I am now taking Allergra-D for my allergies and have started to use a nasal irrigation system. | F | 26 | 1 years | 7/3/2009 | 1 | Ear congestion | After taking it for 3 weeks, i started having neck and shoulder pain..i thought i had a bad posture or something and left it there..then i started having extreme dizziness and felt fatigued all the time..i thought there might be something wrong with my diet..then when all of dis got unbearable i searched the internet for side effects of this drug and came to this page..turned out that people were having the same side effects...nd the worst part is doctor will never admit its because of the medicines..in my case he said its coz of work pressure and some sort of tension..all BS..nd then u think u r going crazy.. | even after leaving dis drug i had vertigo and shoulder pain..seems like after leaving the medicine it takes to time to come back to normal..i had some nightmares too which is also a side effect of leaving dis drug..bt after 1 week of stopping it i am feeling so much better ..its good to feel alive gain..and i m sure in d coming week i vil b fully fit..nd THANK U ALL FOR SHARING UR STORIES..i wud b gald if i can b of ne help to ne1.. | M | 27 | 1 months 27.5 2X day | 5/23/2013 | 1 | Seasonal allergy/nasal congestion | Anxiety, insomnia, sore throat, canker sores (6 at once), puffy cheeks, puffy lower eyelid, pressure in eye socket, poor vision, brain fog, depression, joint and muscle pain, flu symptoms, metal taste in mouth, irritable and "on edge". | I thought I was going crazy until I started researching the side effects associated with these types of nasal sprays. Yes it does clear up my sinuses somewhat, but not worth endless list of awful side effects. What a HORRID DRUG - I stopped today. | F | 29 | 10 days 1X day | 9/23/2011 | 1 | allergies | Blurred vision, felt like I had the flu for days, dizzy. | F | 30 | 1 months 1X day | 5/25/2010 | 2 | Severe Seasonal Allergies | I too belive that major depression and axniety or jitters were inhanced by this drug. It only began when I stopped taking the drug. I was told by family members my mood swings were constantly up and down. I also has some dizziness or foggy vision. | F | 33 | 2 months 1X day | 6/22/2010 | 1 | Sinus infection | Anxiety, sounds were overwhelming, trouble concentrating, felt on edge. | I noticed these effects both times I used it. Will not be using again. | F | 33 | 2 days 1X day | 11/5/2021 | 4 | nasal allergies | gradual onset of muscle and bone pain in arm/shoulder, neck, back, hips & legs. | Helped immensly with my sinus/eye problems. I would keep taking it if not for the continued body aches and pains that are getting worse as I go along. After reading other posts, I am going to stop taking it immediately and hope that helps! | F | 35 | 4 weeks | 5/9/2009 | 5 | Sinusitis, Allergic Rhinitis | None. | Within 4 days, my allergies have improved greatly. I haven't had to use OTC medicine. My eyes are also not gummy like they usually are. I'm happy with it so far. | F | 36 | 4 days | 1/26/2008 | 1 | nasal inflammation | Insomnia. Jittery. | It worked well at relieving my nasal pressure but the side effects were awful. My doctor took my off it ASAP. | F | 36 | 3 weeks | 4/27/2009 | 1 | Allergies | Persistent Canker Sores.... Although I didn't realize there was a connection until I stopped taking veramyst. I have been off veramyst for two months and have not had a canker sore since as opposed to having 3 to 4 at a time while on veramyst. | It worked well for my allergies but the side effects were so sever I would not recommend the product. Also the mental stress that came with the canker sores did not help either. Throughout the experience I thought my immune system had been compromised, it was a bit terrifying. | M | 37 | 3 years 2X day | 5/29/2013 | 5 | Major nasal allergies | Some achy joints. | Started on this about 2 months ago...GREAT medicine. I no longer need to use other nasal sprays, and my sinuses have been so much better on this drug!!! | F | 38 | 60 days | 10/18/2008 | 5 | Non-allergic Vasomotor Rhinitis | Inital sneezing that subsided within a week. Nasty taste in mouth that I was able to control by tipping my head down slightly. | This is the only medication that truely helped my severe nasal congestion. Happily, it also helped with my chest congestion. I continue to have plenty of post-nasal drip however. I couldn't sleep without this nasal spray! | F | 38 | 2 years | 5/17/2009 | 4 | chronic sinus infections | My only concern is potentially linked chronic headaches. | I have experienced decreased infections | F | 38 | 1 days | 11/27/2008 |
