 3  fluid in inner ear Tightness in chest and dry cough. Uncomfortable! It did help with the inner ear issues but the side effects (I'm assuming here) are not worth it. F 51 4 weeks

 1  Severe allergies and hayfever at first hyperness, anxiousness, headache. Later mood swings and loss of appetite, eye twitching, and DIZZINESS was the biggest Was on Nasonex for one month and went off because didn't like how it made me feel. Worked AWESOME for allergy symptoms but the side effects and cost are NOT worth it. Now that I'm off for 3 weeks I still have the side effects!!!!!!!! When will it stop? Thought I had the flu or was pregnant... dizzy.. no appetite. Then I thought maybe it was my vision since I had the twitching. Before I went to eye doctor I thought I'd check about side effects of Going OFF Nasonex. What I've found is shocking. The pharmacist was clueless about these effects when I called him 2 weeks ago. F 32 1 months

 2  chronic rhinitis Side effects: very serious heart palpitations, chest tightness (went away after a couple days) HUGE increase in hunger (hungry all the time), weight gain, chest pain, panic attack. This may work for some people but if you are sensitive to steroids then don't bother taking it. M 28 2 weeks

 5  allergies Although my son has not used the Nasonex every day, he had stated that it worked quite well. However, upon the 4th or 5th time using it he experienced a severe nose bleed that was gushing and hard to stop. Very expensive, even after running through insurance it ran a hefty price. M 19 2 weeks

 5  Non-allergic rhinitis Occasional mild sore throat if I get in a hurry and inhale too strongly while applying the medicine. I've had a runny nose for my entire adult life, about the last 30 years. It wasn't a big deal until a few years ago when I moved to the Gulf Coast and started developing what I thought were allergies. These allergy symptoms got so bad I finally went to an allergy doctor and learned I had non-allergic rhinitis. She put me on Nasonex and my symptoms are cured! My lifelong runny nose is gone! I'm absolutely thrilled with the results from this medicine so far. M 41 60 days

 1  Chronic sinititus This was prescribed for my 7 year old daughter. Although within 3 days this medication did an outstanding job clearning her sinuses, there were some VERY BAD side effects not mentioned. Quite frequently she would awake a night seeming to be disoriented, walk around crying and shaking, saying things that made no sense. It was scary and freaky to watch this and in the morning she didn't remember any of it. Her mood was quickly progressing to being hostle and angry which is not like her at all. We decidided to take her off this stuff and she is back to sleeping well and normal tempered. Tried to file an adverse reaction report but like most things it gets lost in the deep pockets of the drug companies. Works well but be warned of major side effects not listed or admited to be the drug company. M 36 7 days

 1  Allergy, chronic nasal congestion Extreme jitters, anxiety, loss of appetitie, nausea, flu-like symptoms, heart palpitations Have only taken Nasonex for 12 days, and a few days ago, I started having extreme anxiety and lost my appetite. For the past 2 days, cannot sleep or eat. After stumbling across this site, I have decided to stop taking this immediately. Thank God, that I found this, and am not the only one that has suffered these unpleasant side effects. Does anyone know how long it takes for the side effects to subside? Please let me know. Thank you. F 37 12 days

 3  allergies anxiety, panic attacks, eye twitches, loud tinnitus I have Fibromyalgia and the energy was great at first and I could breathe but I had trouble sleeping and panic attacks. I used 1/2 what my doctor prescribed. Maybe short bursts of use would be better than long term continuous use. That wouldn't make the drug companies enough money though. F 50 5 months

 5  Seasonal Alergies I tend to get a dry throat cough while taking Changed my outlook on Spring. I used to go into hiding from May to July. Antihistamines put me into a fog. Nasonex stops the alergic reaction completely for me. No sneezing, No itchy runny eyes. I've taken for 3-seasons now and am very happy. M 37 90 days

 5  seasonal allergies none other than possible nightime leg cramping - may or not be related generally a great product. effectiveness varies with degree of allergens in the air - what part of the country I am in and where in the bloom cycle it is. far better than suffering from seasonal allergies M 45 6 years

 1   My 5-year old son took Nasonex for only a few days and he got so strange. He would not listen, he was repeating sentences on and on like "Sure I moved my arm." and "Sure I turned my head". His look in his eyes was strange. We stopped taking Nasonex immidiately! M 5 4 days
