| 1 | constant nasal allergies | My son was given nasonex to treat his runny nose and congestion... well almost immediately he became a different little boy. He's normally very sweet and cuddly and after the 1st days of the prescription he was moody and would yell at me - completely disobedient and irritable. It was a verrrry noticeable change and I was at my wits end with him until it dawned on me that the nasonex could be to blame. | We called the ENT who prescribed this med and were told that it did not get into the blood stream and could not be causing the problems we were experiencing... But, a week after we have gotten rid of the nasonex my son is starting to come back to normal ... the only change is that his nose is stuffy again... I am currently researching what else to give him but i know it WON'T be nasonex! | M | 6 | 3 weeks | 8/23/2007 | 3 | seasonal allergies | Minor sore throat and headache. Developed cataracts. | Worked for my allergies but don't think it was worth having vision problems because of it. | F | 53 | 6 months | 8/20/2007 | 2 | inner ear problems | Tightness in chest, mood swings and dry mouth. | M | 12 | 14 days | 8/16/2007 | 3 | allergies, seasonal/pet | Have used off and on for a few years. Just started using it again and after a week I noticed my right eye sometimes felt like it had glass in it, and is very dry. Sharp stabbing pain in my right eye near my nose. Blinking makes it worse. When I sprayed my nasal passages this morning I immediately had another sharp stabbing pain in my eye and burning in my nose. This caused me to suspect the Nasonex. | I had lasik a few years ago and my eyes are somewhat drier anyway now, so I am probably susceptible to this. I thought I was just outside too much in the sun/wind and my eye dried a little, maybe I'm not hydrated enough and need to drink more water, etc. Now I am thinking this sudden onset of eye pain and extra dryness is very likely associated with the Nasonex. I will stop again and see if the eye pain goes away. Glad I found this site and that others have commented on the dry eyes. Not a side effect that they tell you about in the literature. | M | 44 | 7 days | 8/15/2007 | 2 | allergies | 8 year old son. Hyperactive from day 1, followed by mood swings, some depression & crying for no reason. Had trouble sleeping at night, said peculiar things, exhibited odd behavior. | M | 8 | 4 days | 8/14/2007 | 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 | 8/13/2007 | 3 | Allergies | Photosensitivity. My eyes hurt if I go outside during the day without sunglasses for even a few seconds | M | 46 | 8 days | 8/8/2007 | 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 | 8/7/2007 | 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 | 8/2/2007 | 1 | allergies | At first it was okay then next thing I know I was always angry and I got so mad one time that I ran over my ex boyfriend but luckliy I could plead insanity due to medicine and not have any jail time I even had bad dreams and I would wake up and been done urinated on myself. Dont take that it will mess u up!!!!!!!!!!!!! | F | 22 | | 8/2/2007 | 4 | mold and dog fur allergies | None I noticed | I can breathe easily through my nose! I did NOT get a sinus infection in the Fall! I did have to get used to the contents of my nasal passages draining out down my throat though(yuk) but its better they drain then stay in there. | F | 46 | 2 years | 8/1/2007 | 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 | 7/30/2007 | 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 | 7/29/2007 | 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 | 7/24/2007 | 5 | sinusus | I had paining inside the nose, because i was not applying it correctly in the nose. I checked on the internet and discovered that i had to spray the inner walls of the nose to had good impact. Not I am really fine. | M | 36 | 2 years | 7/23/2007 | 4 | Chronic allergy | tissue to nose constantly, limiting even working abilities. Pills increased Blood Pressure to dangerous levels | Been fine, total relief. Lately though some dizziness so was looking this up. | F | 61 | 2 years | 7/23/2007 | 5 | hayfever | no side effects | After suffering for years with extremely bad hayfever, i started to take nasonex along with clarityn, and I have been getting better every year, i now hardly suffer at all from hayfever, and when i do feel that 'itch' in my eyes, i use the nasonex spray and it goes away within 20mins | M | 18 | 11 years | 7/7/2007 | 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 | 7/3/2007 | 1 | sinusitus | Sore inner nose, excess fluid in ear, dizziness, anxiety, pain in face | I took this 11 weeks ago. I have since had trouble with dizziness. Been to Ent specialist as docotr suspected vertigo, I am still not well, due to increased ear fluid and facial pain. I am convinced if I had never taken it I would be well today. | F | 32 | 2 weeks | 7/2/2007 | 5 | Seasonal allergies | Slight dryness in sinuses. | Absolutely love it. Works 1000x better than Flonase. Would recommend to anyone who suffers from seasonal allergic congestion | M | 34 | 4 weeks | 6/26/2007 |
