Nasacort (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "Just tried it for the first time today. Although my nose isn't completely clear there is a huge difference than when I didn't have it. I was using Afrin and Nasacort didn't seem to have that immediate clearance that Afrin provided, but it was good because this meant that the addictive effect of total and immediate clearance was not there..so Nasacort was more gradual and less harsh. I love it!"

Nasacort (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "This stuff clears up my allergies but I noticed it makes my heart race also. I also experienced nose bleeds and one of the worse headaches of my life. Throbbing headache and nausea, my taste is off too. Sometimes when spraying this stuff it makes my sinuses burn. I try to only take this medication when I’m in absolute need, the side effects are a bit much for me to handle. I just want an allergy medication that doesn’t give me a bunch of bizarre and painful side effects."

Nasacort (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "I took this last night and this evening to try and help my Rhinitis. After an hour of taking it, I'm pretty wired in more than one way. When I normally have anxiety, I shut down and withdraw, but this medication not only induces anxiety, but it makes me need to do something physical to get energy out. Like run. So I know this isn't me. I also have found out that patients with Afib shouldn't be taking nasal steroids due to them being able to induce an episode. Thankfully, I'm starting to feel it wear off. I took it almost 3 and a half hour ago and am finally starting to feel tired enough for bed, so my body is slowly coming down from it. It works darn well as marketed, I'll give it that, but with Afib, I can't risk it. I honestly don't mind the anxiety or the wiredness, but it's not for me."

Nasacort Allergy 24HR (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "Works within minutes to relieve allergy symptoms, sneezing and runny nose. Although after just 2 hrs of using this medicine I developed the side effects of a cough that got worse as I continued to use the medicine and an altered sense of smell over three days. After the third day I stopped using the medicine, after developing more symptoms, weakness and fatigue and joint pain and swelling in my hands. One week after stopping medicine joint pain and swelling have increased."

Nasacort (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "I only bought nose spray once before. I bought a $4 equate (Walmart brand) that night after spraying it my nose cleared and the sinus pressure went away for almost 24 hrs. I bought Nasacort and all it did was run out of my nose. I did not feel any relief of any kind. I am the most miserable I have ever been."

Nasacort (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "I have developed allergies in my 50's. We have three cats and I am especially sensitive to one of them and will sneeze and sneeze after petting her and my nose will run continuously. I now limit my time with her. Nasacort has stopped my nose from running. My side effects have been a little nausea and a feeling of hyperactivity. For me the hyperactivity is a plus as I am getting things done. I still want to take this medication sparingly."

Nasacort Allergy 24HR (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "Works great! I suffer from seasonal allergies almost every year. I've tried other nasal sprays including Flonase without any good results. Nasacort is the only one that works for me. It does take about 2-3 days to get 100% relief but on the first day I used it I did notice a significant improvement in my symptoms. I highly recommend this nasal spray to anyone who suffers from seasonal allergies."

Nasacort (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "I think probably for those that have a history of anxiety or heart palpations this product should not be taken. I read the side effects and thought it would be no different than the Flonase I had been taking. I have a history of anxiety and take medication for it, so I always check. I failed to check this sites to read reviews before I began taking it. I started taking it last Wednesday. By Saturday night I couldn't sleep because my heart rate was elevated to 102-108 BPM. It took about 6 hours for my heart to regulate and I had taken it in the morning, not at night. I didn't realize it was the Nasacort so I took it again in the morning. I had the same experience with sleeping and heart rate. Monday I decided to take none of my medicines except my anxiety and GERD meds and slept like a baby. Silly me, still doesn't put two and two together so I took it again this morning and then began to work and felt my heart rate speed up so I came to this site...BINGO! never again!"

Nasacort Allergy 24HR (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "I suffer almost year around. I tried many over the counter relief. Some worked for short time then no effect on my allergies. Some worked but had other drugs in them I didn't need. For my allergies. I would use nose spray Afrin for bad times. Ever it stopped giving me any long time relief, if any. Try flushing with saline pots with minimal relief. I tried flownasa and it did work for everything bad taste, bad smell after using would get headache from sinuses being too dry the side effects it would feel light-headed dizzy and still couldn't breathe through my nose. Nasacort works for me. Use at bed time and allergies free all day. I found nothing else. That works."

Nasacort (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "Nasacort has absolutely made my nasal congestion and runniness a problem. I've been using Nasacort for a couple of months. From the outset, after my morning dose (snorting it is not a problem), I would find my nose immediately became runny. If I went cycling I'd find myself with a stuffy nose and post-nasal drip -- classic allergic reactions to my environment. The Nasacort was not helping a bit. In fact, it seemed to be aggravating my allergies. And they don't exactly give this stuff away. So I am doing without Nasacort and will probably switch to a prescription inhaler next time I see my allergy specialist."

Nasacort Allergy 24HR (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "Let me start by saying this medication absolutely does what it is supposed to. It completely clears my sinuses, unclogs my ears and gets rid of post nasal drip. I only use this as needed. I have panic disorder with agoraphobia which is pretty severe at the moment. However, I’ve noticed that this medication does cause some increased drainage due to me being all stopped up. In turn, the drainage causes some nausea which gives me anxiety until it’s finished draining. I’m wondering if this is why others are experiencing anxiety?"

For Allergic Rhinitis "Do not use if you suffer from any anxiety!!! I've suffered extreme anxiety and back to back panic attacks. I have generalized anxiety disorder and using this has triggered the absolute worst anxiety symptoms (shortness of breath, dry mouth, sore throat, clammy palms, tingling arms, and tightness or pain in center of back). Plus, it stopped working after extended use. It may work for some but please use cautiously if you suffer from anxiety issues."

Nasacort Allergy 24HR (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "After suffering for more than ten days with a stuffed nose and post nasal drip cough, I tried this medicine for the first time this morning. Two squirts in each nostril and within an hour, I felt like a new person. I am so grateful for trying this stuff. It is such a game changer for me. It's now about seven hours later and I still feel wonderful. What a blessing."

Nasacort AQ (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "I was hooked on Afrin nasal sprays for years and I got what's called rebound congestion. all of my life I have had sinus problems. I was told to try Nasacort or a steroids spray to help get me off. I tried Nasacort and after about a week I was totally off that rebound congesting Afrin. I haven't felt this good since I was a kid, my sinuses feel great and I can't believe this stuff really works. I'm so happy I'm not miserable anymore."

For Allergic Rhinitis "I've had Chronic Rhinitis for 40+ years and I've tried many oral medications over the years with minor benefits, but not enough to offset the side effects. I've basically learned to live with constant post-nasal drainage and sinus congestion. I used Nasacort for a month and while my congestion and PND abated to some extent, what mucous I did have was very runny, so I had a rather drippy nose all the time. Unfortunately, just as my first bottle was starting to run out I started to experience what I can best describe as an anxious and jittery feeling in my chest. It left me feeling very unsettled and fidgety. Yesterday, the congestion and PND flared up significantly, so I decided to try Nasacort once more, which I did in the late afternoon. When I woke up this morning, the anxiety, tension and jitters were all back with a vengeance. So to me, it's conclusive that these side effects are real and not worth the benefits. Too bad because they really did help the Rhinitis!"

Nasacort Allergy 24HR (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "For years, I have suffered with sinus headaches and sinus infections, with little relief from any of the medicines my doctor prescribed. I have taken Allegra, Claritin, Flonase, and Zyrtec, and none of them worked. Finally, my doctor encouraged me to try Nasacort. Nasacort took a few days to get into my respiratory system, but it worked. All of our bodies are different, so Nasacort might not work for everyone, but it worked for me."

For Allergic Rhinitis "I tried one spray on each side of my nose. Within 10 min my nose started pouring and I was sneezing repeatedly. Ok....maybe I should have not used it in the car and gone into a grocery store. Within 2 hours my throat started to burn and I started coughing and could not catch my breathe. Two choices, 911 or Benadryl. I took the Benadryl while my finger was paused over the phone. I caught my breath but my throat was on fire for 12 hours and still hurts badly today. I can only imagine blisters or sores and very red."

It seemed to help a little, but not worth feeling even more miserable than the allergies. I was using the Walmart generic."

Nasacort (triamcinolone) for Allergic Rhinitis "I’m a 21 y/o female with spring allergies. I’ve been taking other allergy meds regularly but they weren’t cutting it this year. I started taking nasacort and to be fair it did definitely help with congestion and post nasal drip!! For the first day I was feeling good about it and then came the headache. It felt like I was getting punched in the eye socket and teeth constantly. Ibuprofen doesn’t help at all and the only remedy for this pain was 8 hour acetaminophen. It’s slowly making its way out of my system but I’ve had constant pain since the last dose around 36 hours ago. Overall, in my experience, it wasn’t worth it. I’ll deal with some post nasal drip over this debilitating migraine any day."
