BECONASE  (BECLOMETHASONE DIPROPIONATE):  Beclomethasone is used to prevent and control symptoms (wheezing and shortness of breath) caused by asthma. This medication belongs to a class of drugs known as corticosteroids. It works by reducing the swelling of the airways in the lungs to make breathing easier. This medication must be used regularly to prevent breathing problems (attacks of wheezing/shortness of breath). It does not work right away and should not be used to relieve an asthma attack. If an attack occurs, use your quick-relief inhaler as prescribed.    (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 1  Deviated septum I used to take beconase 3 years ago, at that time I developed palpitations and serious ectopic heart beats, I had many checkups, was put on, and still on bisoprolol to combat this, it took 2 years and many hospital appointments to clear up, I am still on bisoprolol to control my heart, I never thought it was the nose spray. starting using it again 1 month ago and my symptoms have returned, I have now stopped using it and hope my symptoms will go away, It seems like this spray has ruined 3 years of my life, and I may never recover, please be very cautious when using it. Keep away from this spray, it could cause you serious heart problems M 50 30 days

 1  For continuous blocked nose I've had anxiety for ages, didnt even relate to me what could be causing it so was in a constant spiral, not thinking that beconase was the cause. I stopped taking it today, I feel unwell on it. Hit the sweats did not help me. Still had to use sinex to unblock my nose. I think the mixture of both of these messed me up. Giving me negative thinking, anxiety, heart palpitations etc M 28 35 days

 1  Post nasal drip Burning, painful sensation in throat and larynx. Neck feels very tight and swollen. Hoarseness and needing to cough. Palpitations and insomnia. Really difficult to know if these are side effects from this medication but they have appeared since using the spray. Never had anxiety in the past but feel quite anxious. I went for a walk recently and my head and head felt heavy and painful. Horrible sensation and I felt very stressed as a result. I will give this medication a few more days as it has been less than 2 weeks since beginning it, but will stop if these symptoms do not disappear. F 60 10 days

 2  Rhinitis Fatigue, very low moods & definite problems with concentration. My voice also became hoarse. This spray was effective for Rhinitis, but I think it should be prescription only. Far too many side effects for some users. M 58 5 days

 1  Post Nasal Drip I developed a weird sore feeling in my throat when swallowing like I had air bubbles that wouldn't clear, I also felt very teary and that's not like me and it made be very tired and also slightly breathless This should be a prescription only item as after I had a few different symptoms that developed after taking it, I realise a lot of people have had the same symptoms after using this F 4 days

 1  Potential hay-fever I took beconase for two days along with citirizine for potential hay fever, I've never had hay fever before but after being short of breath a few weeks back, docs seemed to think it'll that is what it was. (I had a corona virus test which was negative). Firstly the doctor asked me if I'd ever had anxiety which I said yes I have in the past quite severely, so when reading comments that beconase can cause anxiety I was shocked my doctor suggested it...anyway I've had no anxiety from it but maybe that's because I stopped taking it after the second day. Why you ask? Since taking it I've had this weird feel at the back of my nostrils and in my throat, almost like there's cold air just floating around my throat, it's hard to explain but it's a very odd sensation. Citirizine seems to help but going to avoid beconase. M 25 2 days
