Veramyst (fluticasone) : I took this medication for inflammation of my nose, and having hard time to breath and also nose dripping,. My doctor said I will see the result in one month, however I saw the result the very first time, today is the third day I used the drop. It is fantastic, the more I use it, the more I feel comfortable to breath. I loved it, breathing is much easier.

Flonase (fluticasone) for Rhinitis: I have vasomotor rhinitis and this is the best drug for me. When I'm off of it for a few days I can feel my nasal passages swelling and I get an awful headache. Before being on this I took decongestant/antihistimines and I still had post nasal drip and stuffiness and a lot of headaches. With this drug I feel like a normal person most of the time. The only downside is that I get more thirsty than normal but I just constantly carry water with me.

Veramyst (fluticasone) for Nasal Polyps: I had four polyps removed two years ago. My physician prescribed Veramyst. I have really enjoyed using this medication once daily during the two years. No sign of the polyps returning. In addition, during the four years I haven't had a cold or a sinus problem. Prior I would be bothered with sinus problems during the winter season. I recommend this spray and will continue to use it myself.

Veramyst (fluticasone) for Rhinitis: Worked great in reducing my hay fever/rhinitus symptoms. However, headache present the 6th-8th day of use, some eye discomfort/sensitivity, and from 6th day on; small amount of blood present in nasal secretions. Although Veramyst reduced the intensity of my symptoms, (itchy/watery eyes, itchy/runny nose,) it did not completely rid me of those symptoms. Will probably discontinue use due to concern regarding headaches. For me, level of effectiveness probably not worth the side effects.

Veramyst (fluticasone) for Rhinitis: I have seasonal allergies and Veramyst works great, with no noticeable side-effects, when I use it occasionally. However, a couple of times recently I have used it for 3 consecutive days and at that point I began to notice side effects. I've noticed increased heart-rate and slight pain in my eyes. But these do not seem to last more than a day, provided I do not use the Veramyst the following (4th) day.

fluticasone for Rhinitis: After suffering from year-round allergies and rhinitis all of my life, I finally got serious about treatment after the birth of my first child. Although I had taken nasal sprays in the past, I was never consistent. Now, I use fluticasone nasal twice daily and nearly ALL of my nasal allergy symptoms have subsided. I would definitely recommend for anyone suffering the same.

Veramyst (fluticasone) for Rhinitis: Had terrible head cold; Veramyst worked very well keeping sinuses dry and open. Also, this is the first nasal spray that did NOT irritate my nose/sinsuses. I'm happy after using for five days.

Veramyst (fluticasone) for Rhinitis: I've taken Veramyst for 11 days. My cavity fluid was "moderate." In one week the fluid was reduced to "small." A moderate amount of fluid is very uncomfortable to me, with shortness of breath and sinking oxygen level. Blood oxygen went from 91% to 96% in that first week of using Veramyst. It's now at 98%. A huge difference to me in how I feel with the moderate amount of fluid to the small amount. No side effects noted.

Flonase (fluticasone) for Hay Fever: Have used many allergy pills, but nothing works like Flonase. The only problem is when switching to generic, it stopped working for me. I thought I was immune after 2 years, but it was the "generic" that failed me. I've gone back to regular Flonase.
