RATING | REASON | SIDE EFFECTS FOR FLONASE | COMMENTS | SEX | AGE | DURATION/ DOSAGE | DATE ADDED |
1 | Fluid in my ears | Dizziness, tingling on the top of my head, numbness in my hand, leg and foot, fatigue, weakness in my legs, itching, and anxiety. | I would never recommend Flonase to anyone. It has made me feel like I was going crazy. I stopped using it today and I am feeling a little better. | F | 59 | 10 days 50 mcg | 4/18/2017 | 2 | Allergies | One nostril bleeds with open sores; will no heal. Arms and wrists swollen, fingers are swollen and very achy. Insomnia, irritability, lack of energy | I'm going to throw it out. I can barely type or write because my fingers are sausages. Never had issues like this before. | F | 35 | 3 weeks 50 mcg 1X day | 4/17/2017 | 1 | allergies | GERD symptoms, leg veins | I have been on Flonase for years. Oddly in the fall I started having real issues with the veins in my legs. Constant pain and the ability to sit down. Went to a vein doctor, he recommended surgery- when I asked if it could be the Flonase, he said yes. That sometimes for some people steroids cause water retention which could irritate the veins of my legs. When I stopped using steroids the vein pain improved. | F | 45 | 2 years 1X day | 4/17/2017 | 1 | nasal allergies | On third day my scalp started tingling and was crawly itchy. Then i developed pimple like sores on my lips and eyelids. Then the nightmares of potato buds growing from my scalp and then the next night a nightmare of roaches crawling on my scalp. I became photosensitive and my eyes are so red it looks like i am on crack. By the way i feel, the constant itching and batting bugs out of my hair i might as well do crack. | I also started farting non stop. | F | 48 | 7 days 2 squirts | 4/14/2017 | 2 | Sinus congestion | Heightened anxiety, anger. Eventually more mucus produced. Just feeling like crap. | Worked fine for about 1 week, then things went downhill, with increased anger and anxiety, bad sleep. Eventually congestion got worse. I can't wait for this to get out of my system. | M | 51 | 30 days Standard 1X day | 4/13/2017 | 2 | Allergic rhinitis | Anxiety, jittery, angry, fast pulse. | Been on and off of nasal steroids for many years. I keep trying to go back on Flonase because the doctors tell me these side effects are caused by the steroids. Silly me every time I start back up I feel awful and have to stop again . | F | 43 | 1 days | 4/12/2017 | 1 | Allergies | Itching on forearms and legs (ankles). Also needle-like pain in ankles. Losing sense of smell and experiencing insomnia. | Will stop taking. | F | 66 | 5 days 50 mg | 4/10/2017 | 3 | Allergies | It really helps me with allergies, sneezing, itchy eyes. Unfortunately, it also causes depression, irritability and may or may not be connected with some of my sleep issues | i have been taking flonase daily in spring season when my allergies are the worst and whenever else is needed throughout year. This spring i figured since i haven't really been taking it for last few months ( i ran out ) that i'd reupp my usage for a week since allergies are really bad to 2 sprays in each nostril for a week as directions say when starting to use flonase. Well i suddenly felt horrible. I started to feel bad and negative about everything and super irritable which is a little unusual for me. So i wondered if there was any correlation. then i started googling it and realized your only suppopsed to be on this for short amounts of time and anything longer then 6 months should be consulted with a doctor. I stopped taking it for a week and took other allergy meds. I felt the weight kinda lift off me and i didn't feel so bad or irritable.. I was wondering if maybe it was placebo and so I recently took it again to see if maybe i was just overdoing it. so i took just 1 spray each nostril and sure enough i feel very irritable and not so good. Unfortunately, i think i'm done with it forever and i'm kinda bummed about that :-( | M | 30 | 2 years 1X AN | 4/4/2017 | 1 | Seasonal Allergy | Nausea, anxiety, lightheadedness, panic and anxiety attacks, severe depression, fatigue, mouth sensitivity | I thought I was losing my mind because I couldn't understand why my Nurse Practitioner would recommend me this nasal spray. | F | 24 | 2 days 50 | 4/4/2017 | 1 | Seasonal allergies | Really bad anxiety, weakness, lightheadedness, depression. After a month off, still have some depression and weakness, and dizziness. Getting better but very slowly. | F | 36 | 3 days | 4/1/2017 | 1 | Allergies | Nurse practitioner suggested and I began taking when treated for an ear infection. I developed a rash and an infection on my face, which was treated with mupiricin. Then I developed pink eye and excruciating low back pain. Add to the list elevated resting heart rate and anxiety. I followed the chain of events back to flonase and stopped using it, felt immediately better. | I would rather sneeze than use flonase. | 58 | 9 months 100mcg 1X day | 3/30/2017 | 1 | Allergies | Extreme anxiety, agitation, high blood pressure very erratic. Rapid pulse,irritated throat. | I stopped use of Flonase because of said side effects even though Pharmacist said there were no side effects from using a spray. I do not recommend this spray to anyone. Am extremely fit with ultimate blood pressure normally,this has caused more anxiety than it's worth. | F | 51 | 3 days X2 | 3/27/2017 | 1 | Doctor recommended it for post nasal | Anxiety, jitteriness, insomnia, headaches, racing heart rate | F | 62 | 3 weeks two metere 2X day | 3/25/2017 | 1 | Seasonal Allergies | Anxiety | I was totally unprepared for the anxiety that began after using Flonase. I didn't realize the culprit until 3 days of use. I've not used it in 2 days and I can finally tell that I'm getting back to normal. This needs to be listed as a side effect on the label of this medication! | M | 36 | 4 days 1 spray 2X day | 3/25/2017 | 1 | Head congestion and sinuses | Shortness of breath head aches heart palpitations, anxiety can't sleep | It may have caused lung cancer. Why are they selling this | 56 | 4 days 160 | 3/23/2017 | 5 | Allergies | Fatigue,nausea, twilight sleeping, anxiety, irritability and anger | Have sinus infection from allergies,my Dr put me on augmenten antibiotics and to use allergy medicine, asked about flonase, said she loved it. My 3rd day taking it I became extremely agitated and irritable, today I feel about the same. I'm glad I thought to ask google and found this site. No more flonase for me! | F | 54 | 4 days 1xDaily | 3/20/2017 | 1 | Allergies | After reading some of the comments here about extreme anxiety, I have to say it really hit home with me. We recently got Flonase over the counter here, so because I have been a long time sufferer of allergies I tried it a few days ago. Well on top of the extreme anxiety, terrible headache and just overall bad feeling, I started having extreme phantom smell of smoke. It's like a burning dirty ashtray is inside my nose. I feel like I'm going completely insane, and then it doesn't help when I read that it could also mean a brain tumor!! Great! Thanks google! PLEASE can anyone tell me if they have had this strange side effect too, because I'm completely freaking out here, and I don't know what to do - other than obviously stop taking Flonase, which I have done!! | F | 46 | 4 days 2 1X day | 3/12/2017 | 1 | Asthma | Nose bleeds, totally lost my sense of smell and taste. Will never take it again! | F | 56 | 2 months | 3/12/2017 | 1 | Sinus infection | Spaced out feeling dizziness fatigue heart palpitations. Went for routing cardiograph heart rate 104 and blood pressure u as got desperate anxiety before text | Will never use this again. Totally wired as a result of this | F | 44 | 5 days | 3/10/2017 | 1 | Allergies | Insomnia. Irritability. Depression. Heightened anxiety in an already anxious teenager. Leg pain. DEBILITATING HEADACHES. Not worth the side effects | It worked like a charm clearing up nasal congestion but not worth side effects at all. Will stick to Zyrtec. Would not recommend this to anyone especially teenagers who are already sleep deprived. Poison. | F | 16 | 3 months Spray | 3/6/2017 |
