| RATING | REASON | SIDE EFFECTS FOR RHINOCORT | COMMENTS | SEX | AGE | DURATION/ DOSAGE | DATE ADDED |
| 4 | chronic sinusitis/rhinitis | Bloody nasal mucosa on septum. | If you have bleeding while in this medication, CALL YOUR DOCTOR. If you ignore this, you may end up with a perforated septum. This drug worked well for keeping my nasal swelling down, but in time i developed the bleeding. During application, you need to aim away from the septum. | M | 31 | 35 days | 2/28/2006 | 1 | severe allergies | I felt utterly frazzled after taking rhinocort for 8 days. Shakiness, pain in nose, unusually irritable. Mind is racing. I feel high. | I have a seven week old daughter whom I am breastfeeding. On the eighth day of taking rhinocort when I started feeling frazzled she also was unusually cranky and cried inconsolably. | F | 29 | 8 days | 2/10/2006 | 1 | post nasal drip | Sever Anxiety, Wake up in the morning feeling jittery inside, shaking and trembling, panic attacks, worry and panic feeling, very emotional, couldn't sleep. Painful headaches in sinus area and back of head, sinus pressure. | Will never use again. | F | 26 | 7 days | 1/23/2006 | 1 | Tinnitus | This aggitated my stress level with the tinnitus I have. I couldnt sleep well, once I woke up It was hard to go back to sleep. Very Very emotional. Very strange and vivid dreams. Easy to waken in the night! PLease dont take if you are already emotional! | F | 3 days | 1/21/2006 | 3 | sinus | Dry eyes, hazy vision and blurring, upon withdrawing from Rhinocort after 6 months use. | F | 54 | 6 months | 1/11/2006 | 1 | Sinusitis | Mood swings, overly emotional, paranoia, anxiety attacks, muscle aches, tingling in legs and arms. I thought I was losing my mind. After I stopped using it, the side effects went away. | I wouldn't recommend this medication. There are too many side effects and a lot of safer choices out there. It didn't help my problem either. | F | 42 | 12 days | 12/15/2005 | 1 | Blocked Nose, Hay Feaver, Allergies | At first this medicine did help with my sinuses but after a while it started to cause very severe irritation/burning (like there was acid in it) all through my nose and ear canals. As much as i wish this medicine would work it didn't for me and i cannot recomend it. | M | 24 | 3 months | 11/29/2005 | 1 | nasal allergies | Hole in Septum. Painful sinus surgery to correct it!! | Would not recccomend | F | 43 | 1 days | 11/27/2005 | 1 | nasal allergies | Hole in Septum. Painful sinus surgery to correct it!! | Would not recccomend | F | 43 | 1 years | 11/27/2005 | 2 | Nasal Allergies | Insomnia, anxiety. | M | 26 | 6 months | 11/15/2005 | 1 | Allergies | Perforated Septum (e.g. big hole in the middle of my nose as round as the end of my pinky), severe nosebleeds, insomnia, moody, hazy thinking, scratchy/itchy throat. | Never worked completely as I'd hoped, daily nosebleeds and deteriorated my septum over the course of 90 days. I completely removed the scab and septum of an area as round as the end of my pinky. I was not warned of any side effects. I still have the septum in a plastic bag and showed it to my doctor. My doctor wasn't quite sure what to think. I was on the spray a couple more days while he consulted his ear/throat doctor friend when he called to ask that I immediately stop spraying with it. | M | 26 | 93 days | 10/29/2005 | 1 | allergies | Perforated septum | PLEASE do not take this drug. I now have a perforated septum (hole in the divider in your nose) that can only possibly be changed through surgery. I do not know why my doctor did not inform me of this very serious possible side-effect. Whatever condition you are trying to treat, PLEASE look for a safer alternative. | F | 29 | 2 years | 10/8/2005 | 1 | seasonal allergies | the upshot is...Rhinocort alleviated almost all of my allergy symptoms within 2 days. The downside (which far outweighs the benefits) is terrible anxiety and bad moods. This started within a few days of use. I have become very easily and irrationally upset. Ive got 5 kids to be mother too and they are all tiptoeing around me...its not worth it. Yesterday was my last dose. I wont take it again. | If you already have an existing anxiety/depression probelm then talk to your Dr before taking this. It could make things a whole lot worse. | F | 30 | 1 months | 9/24/2005 | 1 | Allergies | For the past week, I haven't been able to sleep well at all which is driving me crazy. And I have been having tightness in my sinus which is triggering headaches that would make me vomit. Also, I have been waking up with headaches. I have never experienced anything like this ever before. And the only medication I have been taking is Rhinocort every single day for about a month now. | It did stop my sneezing in the morning. I would rather sneeze every single morning than having this crazy feeling from not sleeping five nights in a row now. Today, I stopped taking it--and vowed never to take it again. | F | 42 | | 9/16/2005 | 2 | sinus | I aggitate very easily and seem overly emotional. | F | 30 | 7 days | 8/3/2005 | 1 | Allergies/Headaches | I have been using Rhinocort for about 2 months, and I am having difficulty breathing; feels like my throat is really tight, like someone is squeezing it, and feels like my heart skips a beat; like the air is being taken away from me. I have felt anxious; felt like I was having a panic attack. | Has anyone else experienced this? Please e-mail me your comments. My son is 4 and has also been taking this drug. He seems fine, but I am still taking him off of it. | F | 32 | 2 months | 6/27/2005 | 1 | allergies | nose bleeds, nasal crusting, perforated septum | After 3 months of use, we found that the crusting was hinding a hole in the septum of my nose. When I breathe I can hear it sort of whistling. It was great for the allergies, but totally not great for the hole. | F | 34 | 3 months | 6/6/2005 | 2 | Swollen Sinus from Allergy | Increase in blood pressure from 120/76 to 162/94 | Reduced swollen sinus, but the side effect out wheigh the advantages, also many Drs are unaware of the possible increase in blood pressure | M | 51 | 45 days | 6/1/2005 | 4 | Vasomotor rhinitis | Poor sleeping, heat intolerance, rapid pulse -thyroid function fine. | The applicator gives only 2/3 of the stated doses. This happens regularly with both the 120 and 240 dose vials. Most recent 240 dose vial gave 152 sprays before atomization ceased - the 120 dose vials used to give 70 doses maximum. People experiencing similar problems should file a formal report to the FDA in the USA or the Therapeutic Gooods Administration in Australia. AstraZeneca have been getting away with this for years. The product works well but the dosage must be very suspect. | M | 68 | 6 years | 5/16/2005 | 1 | allergies | phungus infection,acid reflex desease, anemia,outof air!!!! | i do no recommend it. it has bad effects. it changed my life... in a bad way. | F | 13 | 2 months | 4/19/2005 |
