| 1 | fluid in inner ear | Hypersensitiviies, jittery, irritable, out of sorts, verge of panic attack, ringing ears | I will definitely stop using this medicine after having these weird sensations/feelings the last two days. I will just wait and see if the fluid in the inner ear disappears on its own. This medicine is not right for me. | F | 47 | 2 days 2 sprays 2X day | 3/29/2013 | 1 | clogged sinuses | loss of smell and taste | It has been 8 weeks since I stopped taking the nasonex and I still can not taste or smell | F | 10 days 2X day | 3/28/2013 | 2 | Cold symptoms | Experienced bad headache. | I have insurance that covered most of the cost of the Rx, thankfully. But when I asked how much it really cost, was told $188! For a small vial---seriously??? And that it was one of the cheaper options. Way overpriced for what it does. No wonder our health care system is in the mess it's in. | F | 58 | 5 days 50 mg 1X day | 3/25/2013 | 1 | Congested sinuses & clogged ear | My right shoulder started feeling like it couldn't hold up the weight of my arm, my knees swelled up so bad, I couldn't bend them to sit or walk properly, I had to take my rings off because my hands started swelling too. Severe headaches, cold sores on the inside of my lips, I've never had them! Scabs inside my nose, bloody mucus, very sore throat, a stye on my left eye, my joints feel very weak at times, almost fell because my knees gave out on me. I have no idea why anyone has not taken this crap off the market! I've never had side effects like this with medicines before, let alone a nasal spray, this medicine I wouldn't be surprised if it eventually has a lawsuit brought against this company, I'm going to look into it for sure! It's been 8 days, and one of my legs swelling has gone down, shoulder pain comes and goes,headache is very faint. My hands are still swollen, but my joints feel weak, I have to be careful when I walk. I want my life back! | F | 45 | 2 weeks 2 sp X 2 | 3/24/2013 | 1 | Allergies,and asthma | After taking Nasonex, I developed ear pain, clogging, fullness, and decreased ability to hear. This medication burned my throat. Nasonex also caused my sinuses to feel very dry and irritated. I developed a serious ear infection as a result of this medicine. I would not recommend this to anyone. | CAUSED EAR INFECTION/ PAIN/ CLOGGING!!!!!! | F | 37 | 3 days 20mg 1X day | 3/19/2013 | 1 | Chronic sinusitis | Insomnia, dizziness, nausea, extremely dry mouth, anxiety, swollen tongue | Well, if only I had checked online before starting to use this... Within 1 day my tongue was swelling, in 2 days I was waking up in the middle of the night for no reason (same next night) and I felt nauseous, dizzy and anxious. Horrible! Have stopped today, let's hope I feel better soon. I'll take sinusitis any ol' day over this. | F | 31 | 4 days 50mg 2X day | 3/15/2013 | 1 | allergies | throat swelling,difficulty breathing, pink eye, cough, dry nose,stuffy painful sinuses (did not have these symptoms before taking nasonex) | I'll just stick to claritin, thanks but NO THANKS! | F | 40 | 21 days 1X day | 3/7/2013 | 1 | allergic rhinitis, seasonal al | My four year old son became extremely anxious while taking this medication, constantly talked about being afraid of dying, was extremely irritable and would start crying at the drop of a hat. He was afraid to go to bed, crying inconsolably at the end of Dr. Seuss movies....I'm talking really, really emotional. He was never like this before (with the exception of the two separate times we tried Flovent. Our allergist seems really convinced that there can't be a systemic reaction to inhaled steroids, but I really beg to differ. I've watched it happen twice on Flovent and now on Nasonex. I know what my son is like normally and I know what he's like on these medicines and it's truly scary and awful. | M | 4 | 4 weeks 1X day | 2/26/2013 | 3 | Past nasal drip | Extremely aggressive, night terrors, hitting, intense screaming | My 21 month old son had taken nasonex before with no side effects. He was taking it for coughing at night due to a post nasal drip and constant ear nfevtions. However, this time it was prescribed to take it twice a day. Within 3 days there was a MAJOR change in my sons behavior. My very sepweet boy who loved to eat and sleep became super aggressive. He started hitting me and his baby brother who he always kissed, not hit. He began screaming an out of control scream making me wonder if he was possessed! He was waking up at night screaming from night terror than wouldn't go back to sleep, he was probably too scared from the awful dreams he was having. I thoug at first that maybe it was the beginning of the terrible twos but theses symptoms came on way too fast and the it dawned on me that it might be the nasonex. I found this website and now my suspicions are confirmed. Parents beware! I feel awful that my son has been feeling like this from this medication! | M | 2 | 5 days 2X day | 2/24/2013 | 3 | allergies | cataract in my right eye | F | 52 | 4 years 30 microgr | 2/16/2013 | 1 | Hay fever | My 7 year old son was prescribed Nasonex by an EMT a Month ago. One squirt in each nostril each night. He developed a cough (sounds like a clearing of the throat) which wouldn't go away so I took him to the GP. He was tested for whopping cough which came back negative. Whilst at the dr getting the test results the doctor noticed a certain hand movement that's son kept doing. He sent my kids out of the room and said that he thinks my has behavioral (the cough & hand movement). He told me he would refer us to a Tourette's specialist in a few weeks if it continues. The cough & hand movement both began about a month ago. I went home confused and tried to think of what could be the cause. Then I remembered he started Nasonex not long before both symptoms occurred. So I googled Nasonex side effects & it wasn't listed. So I googled 'can Nasonex cause behavioral tics' and hundreds of results came up. I rang my GP who had never heard if it. He did his own research and said there seems to be a definate link and to stop using it immediately. I rang the ENT who have scheduled my son in for an emergent appointment next week. I'm hoping that when the Nasonex is out of his system the tics will stop. In the meantime, after, the poor kid has nausea & headaches from withdrawals, and it's only from 4 weeks use. Be aware!!! | M | 7 | 1 months 1spray | 2/8/2013 | 1 | Allergy | Anxiety, Panic, Depression, Insomnia, Muscle Pain, Migraine Headache | Nasonex can cause wildespread depression, anxiety and many other problems. I`m still recovered from this stuff 1 month ago. It can cause also Cushing Syndrome. Corticosteroids, are SUCK!!! | M | 33 | 10 days 8 MG 1X day | 1/21/2013 | 1 | SINUS CONGESTION | Nasonex did help my nasal congestion a great deal. Unfortunately, after close to 2 yrs of constant use the pressure in my eyes increased. My eye doctor told me to stop the Nasonex immediately, as that could be the cause. I did & within 2 months my eye pressures normalized. It is not mentioned in the literature that increased eye pressures & cataracts are possible side effects. My eye doctor informed me of this after I also developed a cataract while on it. | For me, the benefits did NOT outweigh the risks. I am sorry I took Nasonex. | F | 52 | 2 years 2X day | 1/19/2013 | 1 | Sinus Problems | I took this for two days and didn't notice any side effects, but it didn't improve my condition, so I stopped taking it. 5 days later I had to go to the docs because my sinus problems clearly developed into an infection. My Doctor gave me antibiotics but told me to continue the Nasonex, so I gave it another try, and shortly after, I developed a headache that was worse than before, funny taste in my mouth, an anxiousness :( I will not take it again! Going to try acupuncture treatment instead!!' | F | 34 | 1 days Free Sampl | 12/13/2012 | 3 | Allergies | Well today was my first dosage of the spray and everything seemed fine. I've been laying in bed since 10 pm trying to sleep and it's 1 am now. Has to be from the meds. Not sure if I will continue. Have had a minor headache also. | M | 30 | 1 days | 12/10/2012 | 2 | Seasonal allergies & nasal swelling | Severe Sore throat, difficulty swallowing, constant headache, night sweats & irritability more than usual. | F | 29 | 2 weeks 50 mg | 12/2/2012 | 1 | nasal congestion | My 3 year old son took this one time and the next day was off the wall hyper to the point of thinking something was wrong. He wasn't wouldn't listen and tried to hit me. I would not advise this for young children | M | 3 | 1 days 1X day | 11/29/2012 | 2 | Post polyp surgery | Had a stent inserted into my nose after sinus surgery. The stent released a steady dosage of nasonex. While I could breathe well after surgery, I've had to go to the ER for a two day headache that was not helped by narcotic painkillers. I've had 4 days so far of fluctuating fevers, I've developed a phlegmy coulgh and laryngitis. I've completely lost my sense of taste and smell. Unfortunately, I can't get the stents out, they should be dissolving in a few more weeks. I am so hoping that my taste and smell come back! | 26 | 18 days 1X day | 11/23/2012 | 2 | Sinus infection | Post nasal drip/painful throat, mouth sores and tenderness, headaches, eye, brow and face pain. Throat and eye dryness, jaw pain. I am also feeling disconnected and unclear. I'm stopping the medication tonight, I can't cope like this. | F | 44 | 6 days 60 | 11/21/2012 | 5 | Because of blocked nose | First i started getting weird headaches then my ears pop,even when i took strong painkillers it didnt stop also felt very weird by that didnt feel myself,on the week end i had a panic attack,last time i had a panic attack was 1996,am so angry why didnt the GP warned me of the side effects. | M | 48 | 6 days 18g | 11/18/2012 |
