| 1 | sinus problems | From day one of taking this spray I had trouble sleeping, I can usually fall alseep around 10pm but wasnt dropping off whilst 2am. Half way though the week I found I was having nightmares and bad anxiety (I am usually a cobfident person but was overwhelmed with even going to the supermarked) I was extremely snappy with my partner and started getting paranoid over the tiniest things. On the final day I had a disturbing nightmare which caused me to wake up at 4am and not go back to sleep, the only connection I could make to my odd behavior was nasnex and removed my self off it immedietly. I thought I was being ridiculous and made an appointment with my doctor the very next day who prescribed me anti depressants. Luckily I refused to take them it is now day 5 of not taking nasonex and im starting to feel more like me, normal bed times, calmed anxiety and the nightmares are getting less and less. I have no doubt Nasnex made me feel the way I did and I would not reccomend to anybody. | F | 20 | 8 days | 2/5/2015 | 1 | Blocked Ears | Terrible feeling of panic and anxiety. Have stopped taking the medication after just 1 day. Was not even listed as a side effect. | M | 38 | 1 days 50Mg 2X day | 1/31/2015 | 1 | Seasonal allergies | -Anxiety -depression -mental unrest | At first my seasonal allergies were bad, so I took it daily and it helped marginally. After awhile, my mental state started to decline and I started getting mild anxiety and depression as well as homesickness (at college). Progressively, my condition worsened to the point of mental anguish that would arise at random points during the day. Then I started some real investigating and found that when I stopped taking nasonex, I returned back to normal. I'm not sure if anyone will see this but if you do, please heed my warning. DO NOT TAKE THIS! Whatever benefit you may receive is nowhere near the mental costs caused by Nasonex. Although it seems unlikely from a nasal spray, it truly was the cause of me going from one of the happiest people I know to one that would go through each day thinking terrible thoughts and wanting to cry (I'm an 18 year old male) at any given time. Listen to the others on this site as well, stay away at all costs | M | 18 | 3 years 50 mcg | 1/28/2015 | 1 | sinus infection | My symptoms worsened and added post nasal drip, a horrible sore throat and insomnia | F | 32 | 5 days | 1/18/2015 | 1 | Head congestion,stuffiness,cough | Insomnia almost 2 days, major headache ,dizziness,eyes tearing,spaced out | I guess everyone's different my wife takes it when need be for sinus infections with no complaints but she can't stay asleep. I'm not going to take it any longer and wouldn't recommend to. | M | 46 | 5 days 50 1X day | 1/9/2015 | 1 | sinus problems, allergies. | Panic attacks, jittery, restlessness. It feels like I've become over stimulated and on edge. Worked for clearing up my sinus issue, but has left me feeling panicky with sweaty palms. It began on day 3 of taking the nasonex and just now, earlier today, figured out what has been making me feel like this. I hope symptoms will go away soon since I wont be taking it anymore. | F | 44 | 5 days | 1/6/2015 | 2 | Sinus Polyps | Anxiety, panic attacks, feeling like going to die, feeling out of it | I took nasonex in the past for about a year with no issues. I had gotten pregnant so I stopped taking it for a year. Started taking it again last month & within 48 hours the symptoms started. I will not be taking this again, would rather deal with sinus issues than to deal with the side effects. | F | 26 | 1 months 50 MCG 2X day | 1/2/2015 | 1 | Seasonal Allergies | Anxiety, depression, extreme tiredness, head pressure, feeling "disconnected", dizzy, loss of concentration and focus, panic attacks, brain fog | Started feeling all of these symptoms out of the blue. Doctor told me it was just anxiety, but after seeing this page I know it's the nasal spray since I only started taking it a couple of days before all of this started. I would have never thought a nasal spray would make me feel this way, especially since I've been using flonase for years and never had any issues. I'm currently on my 3rd day without using this spray, but no real improvement yet. | F | 23 | 10 days 1X day | 12/18/2014 | 1 | Seasonal Allergies | -Rt. sided headache to the point I thought I had a brain tumor or aneurysm. -Right side facial numbness and numbness in both hands and feet -Pressure in sinuses -Nose bleed -Muscle twitching -Vertigo to the point of falling -I felt disconnected from my body, like I was drunk. -Anxiety through the roof. I thought I was dying. -Insomnia, I was awake for 30+ hours. | Never will I take this drug again. STAY AWAY. Side effects immediately stopped after a day of not taking this drug. | F | 25 | 5 days 2X day | 12/13/2014 | 1 | sinus congestion | Panic. Anxiety. Insomnia. Diareha. Depression. Feeling very strange. Loss appetite. Fidgety. Thought i was going mad. Did relieve congestion somewhat but side affects horrible. Not worth it i will never ever use it again! | M | 46 | 6 days 30 mg | 11/26/2014 | 3 | vertigo | Insomnia,lack of sex drive and mild impotence. | M | 47 | 1 years 50mcg | 11/11/2014 | 1 | Allergies | I went from normal outgoing busy person to panic attack anxiety and the only comfort I could get was laying with my head in my hand to control the swirling feeling in my head. Only writing this to assure others that I do feel ok now 2 months since stopping this. How many people start antidepressants because of this!?!?!? Always check bad side effects before taking any new drugs over the counter or prescription there are always a miriad of side effects however nasonex seems to be a trigger for psychotic reactions, I believe a petition needs to be started. | F | 30 | 2 weeks | 10/16/2014 | 3 | Allergies | My 8 year old daughter started having bad headaches and nightmares about 4 weeks ago. We started her on the Nasonex about 5 weeks ago and it seems like she is progressively getting worse. Then all of the sudden it popped into my head that this could be because of the Nasonex!! I remembered Nasonex giving me headaches when I took it. I don't remember any nightmares, but that was over a year ago. I am going to wean her off it starting today and we'll see what happens. She begged me to take her to the doctor because she doesn't know why she is feeling this way. I am going to make that appointment and hopefully removing her from the Nasonex will help. | F | 8 | 5 weeks 1X day | 10/15/2014 | 1 | Post nasal drip and blocked nose | It has been 30 days since I stopped taking this drug. Today is the first day that my dizzy, head rush feelings have gone away, almost completely. My ENT told me to do to sprays in each nostril twice a day for two weeks. My vision has felt very strange and almost like I have vertigo. I have always been an extremely balanced person who has not suffered from dizziness. I too have been very scared that the feelings would not go away as it has been more than a month since I stopped taking it. I also have never had a bad reaction to anything that has been prescribed to me I do not suffer from any allergies and am an extremely healthy person aside from this postnasal drip which has been really annoying me for the last couple of years hence my visit to the ENT. It's impossible to say for sure if this drug is the cause of these feelings how ever so many people have described similar feelings I have had heart palpitations nervousness anxiety dizziness which are all new to me and today I definitely feel better and I hope that gives the other people still experiencing problems that you will get better. I do still have a strange feeling when I move my head and in my eyes but it's much better than it was. It absolutely shocks me that this drug is also prescribed to children and young adults and I hope that they do not have these issues as it can be debilitating and young people may receive diagnosis on their anxiety as is being connected behavioural problems. I do wish that thes | F | 35 | 1 months 4 sprays | 10/15/2014 | 5 | Indoor/Outdoor/Seasonal Allergies | I experience consistent clear breathing with ABSOLUTELY ZERO side effects. I'm sad to read about so many poor experiences. I had been getting by with normal Claritin for years and after rescuing a dog in August of 2013, I began suffering from long term sinus congestion. My sinus' were dry and what seemed like "swollen shut". I then decided to change to Allegra, and tried that for a month, then Zyrtec the following month with zero improvment. I then decided I had to go back to the old allergy pills I used to take with the "D" on the end... spent a fortune on Claritin - D and still could not breathe out of my nose. I broke down one day and finally went to the doc who prescribed me Flonase and I started improving. I was back to my normal unobstructed breathing again. After that ran out I found it far more convenient to purchase Nasonex - which has been just as effective. I can't imagine my life without this product. I am a HUGE advocate and have turned a couple friends who felt hopeless in improving their allergy symptoms into believers after they tried it. | F | 34 | 1 years 2 sprays | 10/9/2014 | 1 | nasal congestion | Total loss of taste and smell and severe digestion problems | I only used Nasonex off and on over a few weeks time and then threw it away. Now it's been a month and a half since I stopped using Nasonex and I still can't smell or taste at all and still have severe stomach pain and indigestion with anything and everything I eat. Miserable and scared these problems may be permenant | F | 67 | 3 weeks 1 spray 1X day | 10/7/2014 | 1 | Post nasal drip | I have had one other panic attack in my life and one after taking this for a month. It came from nowhere and the after effects lasted for a week. I also felt like my skin was crawling but only now found out this can happen from this drug. I also felt lacking energy and feeling isolated. I stopped taking and since feel normal again. This should be banned. I'm not saying in necessarily causes panic attacks however it seems to be a trigger for one. | F | 35 | 1 months 2 sprays | 10/6/2014 | 1 | seasonal rhinitus | severe anxiety , jitters , unreality , on edge | i do suffer from anxiety disorder , a couple of years ago i was prescribed this for hayfever,one evening after taking this for a few days i came over all weird , anxious ,like something bad was going to happen things seemed really bright, i was trembly and jittery - at the time i put it down to a multivit with guarana in it , but as a precaution stopped taking nasonex and a high dose vit b supplement , i did some research and found both b vitamin in high dose and guarana are stimulants and thought that was that -- last week was prescribed nasonex again (having forgot what happened when i had taken it a couple of years ago ) took first doe on the evening and within an hour was uptight and on edge , had rubbish sleep , took one spray in each nostril yesterday 4/sept 14 and an hour later was really on edge and anxious , felt trembly and tearfull , , i do have anxiety but its never as bad as this -- i then recalled feeling the same a couple of years ago and searched google and found this site . i wont use it again and would recommend caution , even without anxiety disorder this sems a trigger for it. | M | 47 | 2 days as label 1X day | 9/5/2014 | 1 | For Nose Inflamation | Started to have SEVERE anxiety, tightness in chest. The sides of my face around the ear are completely numb and I feel tingling and numbness in my arms and legs. | I was given Nasonex along with an ear drop medication for a possible ear infection and earache from TMJ flare up. After taking both drugs for a week just today I started to have SEVERE anxiety as if I felt like I was going to die. My face around the ears are completely numb, you could poke them with a needle and I would not feel anything. The rest of my body hands and legs also have this tingling/ pins and need sensation. I went to see the doctor and he prescribe me some anti depressant and anti anxiety medication and took me off the drugs. The side effects are scary and I hope the numbness and tingling sensation for my arms and legs and face fades away as I withdraw from the drug. | M | 25 | 1 weeks 2X day | 8/27/2014 | 3 | Eustachian Tube blockage | Anxiety, panic attacks, lack of energy, feeling of hopelessness, tired | I took Nasonex in the past for a eustachian tube problem with no problems. However, that was only for a week and it helped within days. This time for the other ear, I was told to use the entire bottle. Well, lately I have been having panic attacks, anxiety issues, tiredness, exhaustion, to the point where I only felt comfortable being at home. Terrible. I will tell my doctor about this just in case, but I feel better reading these comments so now I know I am not alone or going crazy. I think it did help my blockage, but I will not use it for that long again. | F | 39 | 1 months 1X day | 8/18/2014 |
