 5  Chronic sinus headaches None at all This medication ended a six-month-long sinus headache. I LITERALLY had a throbbing headache for six months, and a week after I started this stuff, it was gone. I have a twinge in my head about once every few weeks, but other than that I've been very pleased. F 30 8 months

 2  decongestent Within 5 minutes of using the drug I felt anxious and panicky. The next day (and last day) I used it I had a panic attack that sent me to the emergency room due to increased heart rate and very high blood pressure. Even though this probably is not a common side effect, it didn't work well for me. F 42 2 days

 1  allergic rhinitis/congestion the major side effects were nosebleeds, dry nose and later perforated nasal septum! I have to wear a permanant nasal septum plug in my nose because the hole was too big to close up. my nose was whistling all the time!!If i knew the problems first i would have never used that!! F 30 1 years

 2  My daughter was in need of it. My daughter became very anxious, and quick to upset after using this medication only a few weeks. While it helps her congestion very much I think it is harmful to her emotional well being. F 37 30 days

 1  for nasal congestion Horrible nose bleeds. Eventually, after 6 months of use, it deteriorated my septum so badly that I now have a large hole in it. There should be much more warning about necrosis to the septum. Doctors and the packaging itself should contain strict warnings about how to use the spray. I have been permanently damaged by this drug. F 32 6 months

 4  allergies/headaches None. I've been using it for several years. It has helped alot. My nasal passages always felt swolen. Which seemed to cause headaches. It has helped with that. It seems to not work as well as it did when I first started on it. F 46 3 years
9/7/2002
 1  allergies Typical steroid reaction--angry, agitated, jittery, anxious, unable to sleep. The stuff does work for allergies, but the steroids in it destroy the quality of life, so it's not worth it. WHen I get desparate, I use it in one nostril only, every other day, and the steroid meaness does not happen quite as fast. F 40 3 days
