 1  Sinus issued I have taken Flonase on and off over the years and always end up with horrible anxiety. Ive come to realize that the one in the white box gives crazy anxiety. The one in the colored box, not so much. I keep forgetting how much anxiety I get because sometimes I go months without taking it. It's pretty horrible. I started feeling hot, then started having insomnia and now racing heart!! I hope this drug leaves my body soon. This drug should be used far and few in between, if at all. Horrible drug. F 55 8 days

 1  Seasonal allergies When I was 7 I was put on flonase. Within a week I had extremely horrible thoughts of harming my self and others. They were constant. I would rock back and forth screaming and crying because I was so scared. After my family noticing the pattern between flonase and my symptoms they stopped giving it to me. After about a week and a lot of missed school I was back to my normal self. I remember being so scared because I never had those feelings or thoughts before. I literally wanted to rip my eyes out and kill my self at 7! I remembered this about my childhood today and wanted to see if it was still being given to children 23 years later. F 7 30 days

 1  Sinus pain Anxiety, panic attacks, irritability, bad temper, suicidal thoughts, malicious thoughts, cannot think straight. Had bad reactions to Prednisone similar to this but not as bad as Flonase has been. I can only deduce that I have to avoid any and all forms of steroids at all costs. I'm sure this helps a lot of people, but I was and still am literally in hell. It is poison to me M 52 8 days

 1  Allergy symptoms Absolutely NO sleep last night! Before going to bed to try to sleep, I got dizzy and thought I was going to faint! My mind raced all night, like panic attacks. I was prescribed Flonase another time, years ago, and remembered I had issues with it, but didn’t remember what the issues were. NOW I remember. I just can’t use this stuff! F 63 1 days

 1  nasal congestion due to DNS Nightmares and insomnia, cognitive blunting, nose bleeds. Also experienced racing heart despite having quit caffeine - something I do once in a while which normally makes my heart rate plummet! Also gave me joint pain that would especially get exacerbated if I exercise. Caused moderate anxiety/ feelings of hopelessness also. Didn't realise its deleterious effects until I quit - do not take for long periods of time! Granted, that it helped my nasal congestion, especially for the first few weeks (after which effect was diminished), all that still doesn't outweigh the negative adverse effects! M 20 3 months

 1  Sinus No motivation, low energy level, shakey, extreme depression, suicidal thoughts I didn't feel myself for around a month. Don't take this stuff long term.This medicine has the potential to put your mind and body in a deep, dark place. Scary, not worth it for a temporary fix. It's in the trash now. Never again.

 1  Stuffy sinuses After the first dose I began feeling unusual anxiety, by the third day I was having a continuous panic attack that lasted days. Feeling of impending doom that is indescribable!! Suicidal thoughts. Had terrible brain zaps. The muscles in my entire body were clenched to the point that I could not move. I could not eat or drink for days, crying when a glass of water was put in front of me. Had diarrhea. I don't know how I made the connection to the Flonase but thank God I did!! It's taken 9 days from my last dose for me to feel myself again. By far the worst experience of my life. This drug could have killed me. The potential side effects are definitely NOT worth it. I feel so bad for people who are suffering these side effects from this drug and don't realize that it is causing them. It's disgusting that there is no warning of mood changes on the label. F 23 3 days

 1  Severe allergies, sneezing 100xday Immediate upon use: racing heart, shaking hands One week: Panic attacks at night, waking up out of a dead sleep feeling like I was dying, couldn't breathe, scared for my life for no reason 5 Weeks: Fighting urge to have panic attacks 1-2 times per day during waking hours So thankful for this forum, while I do have a history of anxiety/panic attacks, usually it is only due to a scary event (getting surgery, dark haunted house, etc). I had never had to fight it the way I did on these meds and I couldn't understand what was triggering it until I found this. Thank you all SO MUCH. F 25 5 weeks

 1  My son has allergies My poor son told me he couldn’t stop counting in his head. It wouldn’t stop at school, hockey or anywhere. I was googling this problem and OCD came up which is a form of anxiety. I think this is way too potent for his little body. He said he also has nightmares. Taking him off of this immediately. Don’t use. M 6 6 days
