 1  Sinus infection / fluid in ears Headaches Dizziness Blurred vision Fast heart rate Anxiety Vomiting Diarrhea Stomach pains Visual disturbances / auras I was prescribed mometasone furoate a few weeks ago which I started taking straight away. 2 sprays up my nose every day. Around day 4/5 I started suffering with blurred vision and slight dizziness. I also suffered with nausea and my usually mild anxiety worsened greatly. I visited A & E and had a sitting pulse of 136bpm this prompted the hospital to do an ECG which came back ok and to take my bloods which also came back OK. I also had 2 visual disturbances of flashing lights whilst on this nasal spray , and a weird sense in my vision field of lights staying longer in my vision after looking away from them. Ive not felt myself and felt disconnected as such , with slow reactions and little interest in anything at all , almost in a depressed state. I stopped taking this medication abruptly around 4 days ago as my sinus issues had gone, and because I was not advised otherwise and didn't realise as a steroid you're supposed to gradually come off them. Its not around day 5/6 of stopping them and my symptoms are easing thankfully. AVOID! F 29 5 days

 1  Chronic blocked nose I was prescribed nasonex to help battle chronic blocked nose, recommended by my ENT. It helped minimally but did not completely clear my symptoms. Then last night I experienced extreme palpitations and chest pain along with anxiety. I felt like I was going to die and was awake all night. Called my GP first thing this morning and he said to stop taking nasonex immediately. I wouldn't recommend due to the severity of the side effects! F 32 14 days

 1  Seasonal Allergies I took it for 4 days, which did clear my nose up each day I took it. So I tried a day without it, nose was fine. Second day, nose was fine. I thought, great. Then whammo EXTREME panic attacks, anxiety out the ying yang. Heart palpitations, inability to handle ANY sort of stress. I've been trying to figure out what caused my sudden panic situation. I looked back in my appointment dates, that's when I got Nasonex. Worst medication ever M 40 4 days

 1  post- flu sinus first few days I had a dry nose and felt sick on and off, but today has been the worst of my life. eye pressure behind left eye that began to spread across my head and to my other eye, became absolutely unbearable like someone was stabbing me in both eyes continuously. I have never experienced such pain and I just didn’t know what to do, I was in such a panic., It had got the tiniest bit less painful but still extreme about an hour on. I will NEVER ever ever use this again as I am certain it’s what’s caused this agony that I wouldn’t wish on anyone. I genuinely felt like I had a brain tumour and was seconds away from death. And there I was thinking my flu pain was bad. DO NOT RECOMMEND F 27 4 days

 2  Sinusitis It gave me very intense throat pain and difficulty swallowing. I was also experiencing significant tightness in my chest that would cyclically come and go throughout the day. I was initially attributing this to my pneumonia recovery from 6 weeks ago, but it got worse as the week went on. Finally called the pharmacy after waking up wheezing at 3 am, and they said to stop taking it immediately. It seems like i am allergic to either the drug or something in it, but it also did nothing at all to help clear my sinuses - if anything, I feel like it may have blocked them further. However, I can understand that everybody's physiology is different and not all meds work the same for all people. M 35 6 days

 1  Hay fever I have had hay fever the last couple of springs, but I usually don’t take anything to treat it. This year it was so bad so I decided to take nasonex. I’m so upset that I took it. I stoped taking it a week ago but I still extremely bad side effects. I have really bad heart palpitations, I’ve had dizzy bouts, sore eyes, a feeling in my chest like I can’t breath and anxiety. How long will it take for the symptoms to stop? F 34 4 days

 1  Non-allergic rhinitis Anxiety, low mood and weight gain Avoid Nasonex - find an alternative! I genuinely thought I was going mad experiencing all the side effects - especially the weight gain as I have always been slim and really struggled to figure out why I had gained weight as my diet/exercise regime had not changed. I then read comments about other people experiencing the same thing along with anxiety and low mood and it all made sense. Genuinely wish I had never used this stuff. It should not be prescribed so freely. F 27 3 months

 1  Allergies Increased nasal pressure, increased headache, exacerbated nasal symptoms, anxiety, panic attacks, racing heart, migraine Absolutely dreadful experience. I was on it for 7 days when I couldn’t tolerate the side effects anymore. And I’ve had side effects ever since I’ve stopped taking it 6 days ago. I’m curious to know if the side effects ever end? I ended up having to go the hospital as I had meningitis symptoms, had a spinal tap, and it was clear. I even had a CT scan and that was clear. If I could rate this product zero I would. F 42 7 days
