 1  Unknown allergy symptoms Severe anxiety, depression, flushed face that burned, itchy scalp, nausea, lack of appetite. After a second night of being awake for 3+ hours with racing thoughts and feeling like I was going to faint, I decided to look up Flonase side effects. I felt so awful it really freaked me out. It’s been about 24 hours since I last used Flonase and I am starting to feel less anxious. Hoping for a full recovery from this scary medicine. F 39 10 days

 1  Ear Drainage Horrible anxiety attack, heart palpitations/racing heart, insomnia, GAD recurrence after so many years being panic attack free I am SO SO SO glad I found this forum. I cannot tell you all how much I felt like I was losing my ever loving mind! Horrible panic attack, one of the worst I can remember having & the anxiety feelings lasting the whole next day (so far). Couldn’t get back to sleep, only had 1.5 hours last night. Heart rate is still elevated & I have that shaky, restless feeling. Which, honestly has subsided at least somewhat since reading all of your experiences. I have a message in to my doctor to see if there’s something else she can give me for my ear, because I WON’T be taking this anymore. I’d rather have the ear issue! F 36 8 days

 1  Wife was taking it Paranoia, anxiety, agitation, self worthlessness, depression, Hot flashes, Vertigo, Crying everyday Watched this medicine almost destroy my wife and my marriage. I thought what my wife was going through was full blown all out menopause but it was this Medication. It amplified her emotions. Id bet my life on it. I have done a lot of research over the internet. It only effects 3% of it users in a harsh way. I worry about all the people that have never found this website. After I got my wife to quit taking it she finally started to be herself after a few months. She was out of her mind for 3 years. Not a coincidence. It was like she was possessed and nothing I could do would convince her it was this poison. I sure this helps a lot of people because its the only thing that helped my wife's allergies. They really should put some type of warning for people on this medication. Even if its just a small few. That was the first thing I looked at when I started looking for anwsers. Took me 5 months to come across this website then I knew I had to convince her to stop taking it. This stuff is poison for some for some reason. You find your self reading these posts because you suspect your side effects are caused by this medication it probably is. Put the stuff in the rubbish and good luck to you. F 53 5 years

 1  Sinus issues Depression , suicidal thoughts , anxiety , irritability,homicidal thoughts, anger, mood swings Never will take again. I started thinking that my wife didnt love me. I started thinking about killing myself and even that my family would be better off. I am happily married and love my family and never felt like this. My wife and child were scared of me all of the sudden . We took the flonase and threw it away . a few days later I felt better than I had in a month . I can't beleive that I had no idea and was never told that this could happen. If I had taken for longer who knows what could have happened. M 45 1 months

 2  Ear fluid, mild post nasal drip After day 1, I experienced a little bit of ‘wet cough’ and the feeling of constantly having to clear my throat, and also eye twitching with no other viral or systemic symptoms. The Flonase didn’t significantly relieve my ear but I tried it a second day. I experienced a significant episode of vertigo/room spinning when I laid down and started to notice a wet cough. I stopped the next day and continued to experience post nasal drip/throat clearing and cough. The next morning, I experienced significant nasal stuffiness, muscle pain that I didn’t have previous to treatment. Over a month prior, I had a mild virus that I had mostly recovered from after 3 weeks except for an ear infection that occurred after travel with many flights. That had also gone away with antibiotics. However, I still had a little fluid on my ear and tinnitus so my doctor prescribed Flonase which I took for just two days without relief and with the side effects aforementioned. F 48 2 days

 4  sinus symptoms from allergies I took 1 spray in each nose in the morning, because I am aware of steroids affects on mood. ( I have Crohns Disease ) Along with Saline spray that I took prior to my shower. I had such a bad cycle of cronic sinus issues that I needed to do something. I am happy to say the medication broke that cycle. I did have issues like some anxiety, I had to make sure I got to bed by a reasonable time otherwise my body would build up the anxiety and I wouldn't be able to sleep. All in all I am glad I took the medicine because I had a couple of years of not having sinus issues. Steriods are not such a great drug but they are needed for various medical conditions. If they were to cause birth defects or serious medical conditions than I would be all for discounting the drug but being as the Steroids do not do that. I wouldn't complain about a mood when the Steriods have clearly saved lives over the years. F 54 0 months

 1  swollen sinus horrible. Immediately after spraying began feeling raving heart beat, agitation, sensitive to light, cold tingling hands. Like drinking 12 cups coffee. 3 days later anxiety came roaring back, light headed, no appetite, sense of doom, cold, shaky, could not sleep for an entire 16 hr period. Symptoms subsiding 24 hrs later. Hope DO NOT USE. I read afterwards that flonase kicks in a few days later and can cause anxiety. I wish i been told this. I never would have taken it. F 48 1 days
