| RATING | REASON | SIDE EFFECTS FOR NASONEX | COMMENTS | SEX | AGE | DURATION/ DOSAGE | DATE ADDED |
| 4 | Sinusitis, seasonal allergies | Nonne, except that I got my life back. I can breathe freely. It's the first medicine that actually saved me money. I cancelled my landscaper's contract as I can now go and cut my own grass. I can enjoy my backyard on those summer days where once I had to stay cooped up in my house. | The side effects others are experiencing seem extreme. I used to take Claritan, but it was terrible...dry mouth, wouldn't stop the sneezing, and made me drowsy. Nasonex has no such symptoms. | M | 36 | 2 months | 6/17/2007 | 3 | allergies | hyperactive, jittery, legs shaking, aggressive and angry | My 10 year old son began taking this medication just 4 days ago and even though it's done wonders for his allergies, he's been shaking his legs uncontrollably and has been extremely hyper and jittery. Tonight however he had an extremely aggressive outburst none like I've ever seen and he threw a rock at my head!!! This is frightening and I'm taking him off the medication immediately. | 4 days | 6/17/2007 | 5 | allergies, chronic stuffiness | None until I caught a cold at school. Then I was worried about getting a sinus infection because of the steroids, so I stayed off it for a few days and took Sudafed and then went back on it after the cold was gone. | I love this product. It does not make me sleepy, and my husband said I do not snore as much as I used to. I think it is great and do not understand the problems that people list here. Maybe they need to read the insert and make sure they are using it properly, and remember to lay off any steroid while fighting an infection. | F | 46 | 4 months | 6/10/2007 | 1 | clear allergies | My 8 year old son on the 3rd night of taking this screamed in the middle of the night, seemed disoriented, had severe leg twitching and was jumping all around. He appeared very panicky. This happened 4 other times during the night and now I find your website in the morning with other similar experiences. | M | 8 | 3 days | 6/10/2007 | 4 | Stuffy nose at night | Hearing appears to be effected. Some pressure in ears, and sounds are amplified - like in a barrel. Fluid? Concerned about ears. Will stop. | Sinus dry. Works well. Wife uses product - no complaints but has lots of headaches. Son uses it - no complaints. Both have severe allergies. I do not. | M | 59 | 45 days | 6/8/2007 | 1 | sinus infection | my child refused to go to bed, became aggressive..and abusive toward me as well as her brother..then we had effects of lack of sleep in a 4 year old. | F | 4 | 60 days | 6/5/2007 | 2 | environmental allergies | uncontrolable heart palputations. chest pain, and a level of panic associated with the symptoms. | had no further allergy symptons | M | 31 | 10 days | 6/2/2007 | 1 | Nasal congestion, hay fever | Horrible heart palpatations, shortness of breath, jittery, anxiety - the feeling like I was going to faint if I didn't sit down, dry mouth and nervousness. I am an otherwise very calm, laid back person. I couldn't figure out what was wrong with me. I went to the doctor and they told me to take Prilosec because I had heartburn- wrong. I finally figured this out on my own. Stop taking this med. what it can do you is scary. I threw it in the garbage can and will never take it again. I've had a headache for 4 days now. | I had an EKG done because my heart was beating out of my chest. It was normal. I had a CBC done and it was normal too. My pulse was normal but my blood pressure was on the high end of normal. Be careful when using this spray- it isn't worth it! | F | 41 | 5 days | 5/27/2007 | 2 | Nasal Congestion | Weight gain, bloating, water retention, tender/sore breasts, irritability, and aggression. I'm a stomach sleeper, after using Nasonex for 4 days I could not sleep on my stomach due to breast soreness/sensitivity. | Cleared only one nasal passage (left), the right remains conjested after 7 days. The side effects were not worth continuing the medication. | F | 45 | 7 days | 5/25/2007 | 1 | Allergies | Heart palpatations, muscles ache, weird dreams can't sleep. | I took Nasonex for 3 days last week and noticed my heart was skippindg beats. I got real nervous and went to the family Dr. and he said the palpatations were normal however I never in my life had these symptoms before until taking Nasonex. I stopped using it last Thurs. and five days later am still having symptoms. I hope the palpatations go away I'm only 33yrs old. Nasonex is the only thing I took for my allergies that could be giving me these symptoms. Can any one give me some insight when these symptoms should get out of my systom? Thanks | M | 33 | 3 days | 5/22/2007 | 4 | Nasal congestion/allergies | Minor headaches and sore throat with 2 sprays in each nostril. Reducing to 1 spray in each nostril reduced the side effects and still helped with congestion. After using about 1 year, developed sinus pain under the eye and along the nose. | Worked much better than Flonase, Beconase, etc. | M | 48 | 1 years | 5/19/2007 | 1 | nasal congestion | Very bad headaches. Dry lips and mouth. | Cleared my sinuses but had gave me headaches that equalled the ones when you stop drinking coffee. Nothing I took got rid of the headaches. Would rather have a little congestion than those headaches! The headaches started on day 5 or 6 and were there when I got up until I went to bed. | M | 40 | 2 weeks | 5/19/2007 | 5 | Hayfever, Dust Mite | None whatsoever. | This is a brilliant nasal spray. I have not had any side effects at all and am surprised by the other negative comments. I drive for a living and other sprays have made me drowsy but this keeps me fully functional and I can breath like I never breathed before. | M | 6 months | 5/18/2007 | 1 | Nasal congestion | Anxiety, panic attacks, jittery, trouble concentrating/lightheaded, blurred vision in left eye, shaky muscles, shortness of breath. When I have to urinate, the urge becomes immediate, bladder control problems. | The medicine has helped with my nasal congestion. It worked well in terms of opening my sinuses but the side effects are too extreme to continue taking the medicine. | M | 39 | 4 weeks | 5/17/2007 | 1 | allergies, polyps, congestion | HORRIBLE mildewy smell, increased nasal congestion, chronic sinus infection, fatigue, irritability, sinus pain and pressure | My allergist added nasonex to my medicine routine after I had sinus suregery to have several polyps removed and to clean out my sinuses and fix my deviated septum. I had this surgery in January and began taking nasonex in February. I have had a sinus infection since February that I cannot get cleared up. I am now on an oral antibiotic, prednisone and and antibiotic rinse (which is no fun to take!). AFter reading these comments, I am convinced that the Nasonex has caused this 3 month infection. After my surgery in Jan., my ENT surgeon said all my sinuses were clean and infection free. It's a shame that after going through the pain of recovering from surgery(and out $5,000) and being well for one month, a bottle of nose spray has practically put me back at square one!!! I have also trashed my Nasonex and will tell everyone I know not to use it!! | F | 35 | 3 months | 5/17/2007 | 1 | Allergies and post nasal drip | anxiety, chest pressure, shortness of breath | was on it for about 3 weeks and I already have problems with being anxious and this medicine just hyped me up big time, not to mention the pressure in my chest and shortness of breath. I have been off of it for 4 days now and all the symptoms are starting to go away | F | 27 | 3 weeks | 5/16/2007 | 2 | Perennial Allergic Rhinitis | Increased rhinitis, mild sore throat, sneezing | Expensive way to find out that it made my symptoms worse rather than better. I am throwing out the rest! | F | 35 | 5 days | 5/9/2007 | 1 | Nasal congestion | It turned me into a grumpy mean old man.It chaged my personality from a quite easy going person to one who would get very nasty if someone said something I did not like. | This is the 2nd time I have tried Nasonex.I will never use it again.My wife agrees with me that this stuff is not good for your mental health. | M | 70 | 6 months | 5/9/2007 | 1 | allergies,sinus infections | anxiety,unability to concentrate,dry mouth,inbalance,ear pressure,agitation,fatigue,nervousness,dizziness | for the longent time i thought i was suffering from some sort of vertigo and and anxiety disorder,i even saw a therapist about who quikckly wanted to prescribe more meds(didnt help),i got off those but my symptoms were still persistant,i then got off the nasonex and was fine.i believe this medication should very much be off the market. | F | 18 | 4 months | 5/9/2007 | 2 | Seasonal allergies | Bloating and weight gain, very sore throat, blurry vision, fatigue and tiredness, sore fluid-filled ears. | Had no idea about the side affects and am getting very frustrated. Decided to Google Nasonex and see if it had any side affects that aren't listed in its brochure. I'm disappointed that a company can get by without listing what seems to be common problems. Will stop taking immediately. | F | 46 | 14 days | 5/6/2007 |
