| 4 | sneezing, runny nose | Immediate impotence, high blood pressure. | I was advised to use saline spray instead of steroid (scareoids). I started and stopped this drug many times but now it's for good to get control of stage 1 hypertension (high blood pressure).There was study and a huge number of men my age lost sex life after taking this drug. | M | 52 | 2 years 50 x 2 1X day | 6/10/2011 | 2 | allergies | higher blood pressure, agression, anxiety, sleeplessness, vivid dreams,nasal fullness,headaches,inflamed epiglotis,dread, bloody nose,night sweats, head sweats, no taste, no smell.... | generic fluticasone propionate 50 mcg has made my life this past ten days difficult. I would prefer to sneeze, have watery eyes, cough than to be like this. This is my 3rd bottle over 1 year. I had no problems with it until now. I won't take this again. | F | 58 | 10 days 50mcg 1X day | 6/3/2011 | 1 | seasonal allergies | Headache and dizzyness after using only one time. I started feeling side effects after a hour of first use. I will not use this medicine again. | F | 21 | 1 times 50 mcg 2X day | 6/3/2011 | 1 | Ear plugged, constant allergies | WORST. DRUG. EVER. I SERIOUSLY THOUGHT I WAS GOING CRAZY. I had severe anxiety attacks, I didn't understand what I was feeling. I kept thinking that I was high on drugs, and I would freak out about everything. I am generally a happy person, and have never felt depressed, or anxious. However, WHILE ON THIS DRUG, I had suicidal thoughts, I could not enjoy things I used to enjoy, I wasn't able to focus, I wasn't able to communicate with friends. It was HORRIBLE. I think it is RIDICULOUS that they don't put anxiety on their side effects!! I was looking for it on there, and I couldn't find it, and therefore determined that I was just going crazy. | I don't even think it helped my sinuses that much. | M | 23 | 2 months 1X day | 6/3/2011 | 3 | Allergies, Sinus Congestion | anxiety, chest tightness, insonmia | I took Flonase for a few days. It works great about getting rid of allergies and sinus issues, but it gave me terrible anxiety by the third day. I felt like I was going out of my mind. It is something that shouldn't be taken everyday, but for days when pollen is very bad. I doubt I'll take it again, though. | F | 25 | 5 days 2 squirts 1X day | 5/30/2011 | 3 | Allergies, hay fever, runny nose | My son has seasonal allergies and his pediatrician prescribed him Flonase x2 daily. At first everything was fine, and he stopped sneezing and coughing at night. But we have been noticing extreme weight gain and he has been really emotional; crying and aggressive with his little brother. Although it alleviated the symptoms it is basically exchanging one set of symptoms for another. We are going to try OTC allergy medication instead. | M | 7 | 20 days 2X day | 5/20/2011 | 1 | Sinuitis | Complete loss of smell and taste after the first day. Quit taking it and still have no smell or taste. | M | 43 | 2 days 1X day | 5/15/2011 | 1 | allergy | Total loss of smell and taste which has not returned after stopping this medication | Patients should be warned about possibility of losing sense of smell and taste - so important to enjoy life to the full. I do not know how it can be restored. | F | 67 | 2 weeks 1X day | 5/13/2011 | 2 | Allergies | No side effects. | Does not do anything for my problem. Still suffering initial symptoms after 10 minutes of being exposed to problem environment. Have not noticed any side effects, have noticed an increase in appetite but controlled through increased activity and proper food choices (Fruits and veg intake up) Weight gain expressed by sufferers might be due to increased intake of food. Exercise more, eat less starch, problem solved. But flonase and nasonex have not solved my issue. Hate allergies. | M | 31 | 12 months 2 sprays 2X day | 5/11/2011 | 5 | Seasonal allergies | Odd floral essence for about a half hour after use that kind of puts taste off kilter. Then you could pretty much set your watch by when it goes away each time. | Good drug. It works, and I've used it seasonally for almost 15 years. I think if people stopped reading the insert, or diagnosing themselves on the inTArwEB (cuz you know, that makes you a doctor), you'd probably see a lot fewer of these goofball complaints like IT MIGHT HAVE GIVEN ME BREAST CANCER LETS FILE A CLASS ACTION SUIT!!! Anyway, 50 micrograms each side twice a day does nothing more than control your allergy symptoms. Also, my doctor said that most adverse side effects come improperly spraying this into your actual sinuses, rather than pointing the tip barely inside your nostril toward the same side ear with a VERY light sniff. | M | 44 | 30 days 100 mcg 2X day | 5/4/2011 | 3 | seasonal allergies and sinus pressu | blurred vision, weight gain, insomnia, anxiety | Works wonderfully on allergies and sinuses, but I gain weight within days of resuming this. | F | 42 | 120 days 1X day | 5/3/2011 | 4 | inflammation and polyps | This spray helped my sinuses tremendously but I have gained about 10 lbs. in 4 months and have started a terrible case of acne! I also have been quite irritable... | F | 44 | 4 months 2X day | 4/28/2011 | 3 | allergies | anxiety, nervousness, frustration, aggression | Does a great job clearing my sinuses, but I thought I was going crazy until I saw this site. I'd rather have the congestion than be this grouchy all the time. | F | 40 | 30 days 50 MG 1X day | 4/25/2011 | 1 | bad allergies, itchy eyes, sneezing | horrible anxiety - tight feeling in chest. A little short of breath. If I didn't have techniques to cope I'd be on the way to a panic attack. Stomach ache. . | worked great on my allergies within 12 hours. I was really happy. after 3 days use started to get the tight chest feeling - anxiety. Yuck. Didn't suspect the spray until today when I forgot to take it this morning and took it this afternoon and soon had a return of the tight chest. Was pleased to find this site and have my suspisions confirmed. Such a shame about the side effects, I have sneezed only twice in 5 days, no itching. But this anxiety is too much - rather have the allergy. | F | 41 | 5 days 2x spray 1X day | 4/17/2011 | 5 | couldn't breath | a little anxious the 6th day | I was camping it was really windy. Allergens were everywhere. I couldn't hardly breath. I had used Flonase once before and it helped. I drove home at 3A.M. just to get it. Sprayed it in my nose. Instantly my head cleared, my ears loosened, my nose opened up and I could breath. Fell asleep. Mostly I only use Oxymetazoline. I don't use Flonase everyday. Only used it 6 times. But I know for sure it works. I noticed a little build up of anxiety, frustration, nervousness, stress not unlike to much coffee. | M | 35 | 6 days 50mcg 1X day | 4/14/2011 | 5 | Sever allergies | No side effects | This site is amazing...doesn't anyone get any good results for any medication?? anyway I have used this spray for years and I have gotten wonderful relief, less sinus infections with NO side effects. I would highly recommend this to anyone suffering from allergies. | F | 54 | 8 years 2 sprays X 2X day | 4/12/2011 | 4 | Coughing | Some mild pain in nasal area | My daughter coughed for several months took her to many drs to help ent actually diagnosed her with anxiety possible habit disorder. Friend got me to consider flonase them spoke with pediatrician. Since she has been using it coughing almost gone. Just mild symptoms when we forget dosage a few days in a row. I am just concerned about long term side effects. | F | 9 | 3 months 1X day | 4/2/2011 | 1 | sinus problems | My whole body was shaking, very nervous, muscle aches, tiredness, twitching all over body, eyes were dry, burning sensation on skin, frequent unination. | This should be pulled from the market and a major lawsuit filed against the makers for all the people whose lives were may so miserable and damaged because of this terrible drug. | M | 69 | 5 days 50mg 1X day | 3/21/2011 | 3 | seasonal allergies | After taking the drug for over 8 years I lost my sense of smell very suddenly, as in one day I could smell, the next I could not. Will I get it back? | M | 61 | 8 years 2X day | 3/19/2011 | 4 | swollen nasal turbinates, left side | none that I have noticed | For years the left side of my nose has been blocked. Having recent constant headaches, ear ache, sinus trouble. ENT doctor found turbinates very swollen. Flonase has reduced this swelling. Headaches gone, ear ache gone, I CAN BREATH THRU LEFT SIDE OF NOSE ! And no more sinus trouble. | F | 63 | 6 weeks 50 mcg 1X day | 3/15/2011 |
