| 1 | Allergies | Cleared a stuffy nose but at the cost of very painfull sinus like someone was buring the inside of my face. Didnt help runny nose or sneezing at all. Exitabilty and seemed to cause fluid in my ears and heart was beating oddly kinda scary. | Not worth the pain it caused 4 more problems and it kinda fixed 1. Do not use I've got 2 full bottles going in the trash as I type. Screw you Nasonex | M | 25 | 1 days | 1/19/2007 | 1 | sinus congestion | Have taken nasonex for 3 days. Have had insomnia and headaches, am jittery and dizzy for about 4-5 hours after taking medication. | Has not helped the congestion in fact it seems worse | F | 44 | 3 days | 1/17/2007 | 2 | post-nasal drip/allerg.rhinitis | terrible insomnia, nose bleeds, hot flashes----all stopped when discontinued Nasonex | The insomnia started off slowly and I didn't attribute it to the Nasonex at first, then it became completely clear what was causing it. | F | 51 | 8 days | 1/11/2007 | 3 | sinusitis | heart palpitations, tight chest, shortness of breath lying down and at the start of exercise, facail rash (after a couple of months) that is related to steriod spray use. | worked to open sinuses, also decreased infections. but palpatations were unnerving. stopped the drug. | | 1/4/2007 | 3 | allergies | lightheaddedness, dizziness, muscle aches | started taking nasonex, it worked great, but i got a terrible sinus infection and started feeling quite dizzy. | F | 28 | 3 weeks | 1/4/2007 | 2 | allergies | Loss of sense of taste and smell | After approximately 2 weeks on Nasonex,(2 sprays in each nostril, twice a day) my nasal breathing became clearer, but I noticed I could not taste or smell. I had also been on an Advair inhaler which I have used previously with no problem. I mentioned this to the Doctor, he said keep taking the Nasonex as it would help this. I thought not, so tossed it in the garbage. That was 3 weeks ago, and still no taste or smell. | F | 47 | 3 weeks | 1/4/2007 | 2 | rhinitis | After taking Nasonex for three weeks, I came down with shingles on my face. Unfortunately, the shingles were misdiagnosed as poison ivy, so I was given steroids, which just made the condition worse. Didn't get the antiviral meds for a week. | F | 49 | 21 days | 12/30/2006 | 1 | nasal allergies | My daughter acted like she was on a motor. Poor listening and aggressive. | All other websites (including the company) state that the side effects were flu-like symptoms, respiratory issues...etc. Thank you to all who wrote in about manic-like symptoms. It is a horrible side effect. | F | 6 | 1 weeks | 12/30/2006 | 1 | Allergy, nose congestion | fingers pain, toes pain, mussels pain, anxiety, joint pain, lungs tightness, less sleep, numbness. | It works great in terms of treating nasal allergy symptoms that I have. I start then developing fingers pain, then toes and joints pain. I used to have chest pain (may be from the Flonase I sue to take). So, I did not wonder of the chest pain that I have. However, the fingers, joint, and toes pain made me see different primary doctors and two orthopedists. Blood tests were good, bones were good, nerves were good. So, I was left with two possible diagnoses: rheumatoid or osteoarthritis. There were no rheumatoid specialists in the two where I live. So, I had appointment with one in other city after four months. During this period, I ran out of the two NASONEX samples my primary doctor gave to me; hence, I did not use it for one week. I start noticing that the symptoms of fingers pain, toes pain, numbness have disappeared. I thought NASONEX may be the cause. I decide to do some search over the internet about the side effect of NASONEX. To my surprise, I find similar symptoms reported in t | M | 42 | 90 days | 12/26/2006 | 1 | Nasal Allergies | Lip swelling, fever blisters, terrible nosebleeds | Son woke up with lip swollen 3x it's normal size--so big that it was splitting down the middle and bleeding/oozing. Two days later, fever blisters developed on top of it and terrible nosebleeds began (both nostrils, heavy flow, difficult to stop). 3 prescriptions were needed to heal him. | M | 8 | 1 months | 12/19/2006 | 3 | Nasal Polyps / Surgery | I am a cross country mountain bike racer. After 3 days using Nasonex I noticed no increase in Nasal openness. I have noticed my leg quads burning and cramping when riding at very high intensity. I will try for a few weeks, if problems persist I will disscontinue use of Nasonex. | M | 37 | 3 days | 12/18/2006 | 1 | fluid in ears, allergies | Significant heart palpatations, fluttering, dry cough, blood in nasal secretions,tightness in chest with deep inhalation. Symptoms last for a day or two after using nasonex. The heart palpatations were very unnerving. My physician said it wouldn't cause this but there is nothing else different. One month ago same thing happeded but the physician said it was from Allegra D. I just resumed nasonex last night and lo and behold the palpatations started again. | Took for 3 weeks then later for 2 days. Will no longer take it because the side effects are worse than the problems I am having. | F | 35 | | 12/14/2006 | 3 | chronic sphenoid sinusitis | I have become completely manic!! I am high for 5 or 6 days at a time and then seem to be exhausted on the 7th. Endless energy and cant stop talking! Definate improvement from being exhausted all the time prior to treatment. | Although there has been some improvement to sinus headaches I am finding they are slowly creeping back. If I miss a dose of nasonex I become very quickly congested and sore. Nasonex seems to be working for me as a decongestant rather that a cure/treatment for severe sinus pain. I am however rather enjoying the experience of being manic and will be loathe to give it up after years of lethargy!! | F | 40 | 70 days | 12/13/2006 | 1 | sinus congestion | irritability,depression,reduced sex drive,increased pressure in ears and lower sinuses,noticed an odd smell all the time kept thinking things were mildewy, blood in mucuous, decreased energy level, itchy skin,dry eyes with redness... I will not use again. | This was my second bottle and am probably half done with it. I had just told my wife today that I felt extremely depressed and also asked her if the house smelled odd. She advised no. Noticed odd smells at work also. This website was a great relief to me. Thanks!!! | M | 52 | 6 weeks | 12/13/2006 | 1 | allergies | i have been taking nasonex for a week now,i have noticed i have had a very high level of anxiety,irritable,heart racing,kind of scary.i will stop immediatly!!!!!!!!! has anyone else experinced this? | F | 34 | 7 days | 12/12/2006 | 3 | sinus allergies | Extreme headaches and shooting muscle pains in neck and throat area | I tried taking half dosage twice a day, with at least 3 hours between half dosages. It may have decreased the effectiveness on my sinus congestion but the extreme headaches and muscle pains decreased in intensity and eventually became minor. If I returned to full dosage, the headaches and muscle pains came back full strength. I checked with my doctor and he felt this was an acceptable solution. | F | 46 | 1 months | 12/6/2006 | 1 | Nasal congestion | My 7 year old daughter became very moody and tearful! | F | 35 | 7 days | 12/2/2006 | 5 | chronic sinusitis | No side effects. A great product for me; every effective at preventing recurrent sinus infections. | Unlike other prescription nasal sprays, Nasonex does not cause my nose to bleed. | F | 54 | 10 months | 11/28/2006 | 1 | Rhinitis | Used for several years with no problem. During the past 2 years however I have been developing viral infections in my nose that are very painful. Wasn't sure at first they were caused by Nasonex, but am now. I would stop using it and the infections would eventually go away, but when I started using it again they would return almost immediately. | Highly effective in controling my rhinitis symptoms. | M | 47 | 10 years | 11/28/2006 | 1 | Allergies and sinusitis | Anxiety, heart palpitations, twitch eyelid, dry and red eyes (I wear contact lens), stomach ache, even depression sometimes. | It's such a bad idea to use it while you have to write a 400 pages thesis within half an year. | M | 35 | 12 weeks | 11/28/2006 |
