Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "Used it once this morning for the first time. The taste is so bad I can only describe it as taken something poisoness. I cannot believe they give this to people. I cannot believe people take this daily. I was gagging and almost threw up from the taste/smell. I’m having post nasal drip now and cannot get it out of my sinuses. I’d rather stuff than ever use this again."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "Horrible, bitter taste. Lingers for hours then continues to drip down your throat and continues giving you a horrible awful taste. Did nothing for my nasal allergies, except a 10 min clear nasal way, but the taste didn't make this worth it."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "My ENT suggested I try Distma for allergies since Flonase had not helped. Three hours after Distma's first use I had intense needle stabbing pains in left side of head from crown moving down to ear/ temple area & then back up for "30 hours"! Very drowsy & in a haze. Then when I walk can hear something drumming in my hear, so it's back to the ENT tomorrow to find out the damage! "Do Not Use this product is my suggestion!" It seems I have a perforated eardrum!"

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "I was prescribed Dymista because I couldn't breathe through my nose .It did clear my nose at first but I am not taking it any more because of these reasons 1) After 3 days I experienced extreme bouts of excessive & violent sneezing of an intensity that shook my entire body as if I was having a fit 2) Watery eyes 3) Flu like symptoms including a total swelling and blocking of my nasal passages 4) itchy back ,arms , thighs & scalp 5)headache and 6) worse still, anxiety of unknown origin. The anxiety hit me on the 7th day.I am not an anxious person & it felt horrible and weird. I started having odd thoughts and worrying about things like how many books would I be able to read before I died. The anxiety did not make any sense to me or my husband. I was stunned to find that anxiety & depression are a potential symptom. So it is in the bin with the Dymista !"

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "So allergist gave me sample, have been using Flonase. The after taste is awful but worse is the subsequent coughing, nausea with vomiting shortly afterwards, slight headache. Did not realize extra tiredness was also from this. It does feel like the nasal passages are opened up more but the morning porcelain throne is not worth it. And no not pregnant! Ain't possible. Definitely will inform MD."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "The taste is awful and does last for hours . I was also given the sample without prior knowledge that I should not be driving after use. I feel so out of it , drowsy, slight nausea. I'm still waiting for my insurance to let me know if this medication is covered and how much it will be even after the coupon card . At this point its not worth purchasing . Haven't noticed any positive change either in my sense of smell or nasal breathing ability."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "First time taking it I felt horrible. Yes the taste is awful but also my throat felt sore and my breathing was affected. I would take a drink of some juice and the awful taste did not leave. So I tried some apple cider vinegar with water and that still did not work. I had the worst feeling ever after 1 dose. I will be contacting my ENT doctor. I know it varies among people but that awful taste and feeling upon using is unforgettable."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "I've had year round allergies for years and have tried zyrtec, Claritin, Allegra, Flonase, and numerous eyedrops with nothing completely alleviating my symptoms. Flonase was probably the closest, gone were the itchy eyes, puffy face, constant clearing of throat, runny nose and sneezing, but I still had that annoying itchy nose. My doctor tried dymista last year, and wow, I love it! It works amazing at alleviating all my symptoms, I feel so much better, it is really expensive though but their is a coupon to help with the copay. The after taste is horrible but a glass of water and piece of gum gets rid of it. Also, I do sneeze or feel on the verge of sneezing for about a minute after taking it. Overall, I love it."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "My teenaged son is congested from February through June. We live in the part of Texas where you can actually watch the cedar pollen pods explode (literally). I was so excited to hear all the promises of Dymista, but every squirt caused him to have crazy sneezing fits - like 15-20 in a row! We kept trying for 3 days, but he was miserable with the sneezing. Haven't seen any other reviews mention this, so I guess we are just special : /"

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "The positives for me were that it immediately helped with my itchy nose. However, it didn't completely get rid of it. I was taking it in the morning and at night and I felt so drugged and irritated. I really had to make myself do anything during the day. All I wanted to do was sleep. I've gone back to just suffering through my allergies during the day, and taking Benadryl at night. I've got two small children, so being excessively tires and cranky during the day isn't an option for me."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "Experienced choking, headaches and after using for 2 weeks progresssively worse nose bleeds. I ended up in the emergency today, my nose is a mess inside. Cauterizations two days in a row, patches put on the area that have been bleeding. Now I can take no nasal spray until everything heals. I have taken Nasonex for several years and like it but my mail pharmacy stopped carrying it. Threw away 3 containers of the horrible Dymista."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "I have been suffering from extremely bad allergies for years. Between my allergies and my asthma, I have had to use OTC nasal sprays, a combination of allergy medications and my asthma inhaler. I just started using Dymista and for the first time in years, I was able to breathe clearly. I did not even need to use nasal spray! I am so glad I finally found Dymista!"

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "So far so good. I have been using Dymista for 2 weeks & I can breathe out of both nostrils & I have a sense of smell again! I used Nasonex for years & it worked well, but I seemed to build up a tolerance after awhile. For the last couple of years I have been hooked on OTC nasal spray with horrible rebound congestion which required antibiotics & prednisone to kick. After this last round of antibiotics & prednisone & a change to Dymista. I can now breathe! I hope it continues. I was even able to find a discount coupon online so I got it for $30."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "I am also one of those people who seem to be allergic to everything and always suffering. My doctor recommended this and I've only been on it for a few days but it is already a game changer for me. The true test will be cedar season but I feel confident I will be okay. Thankful for the discount card!!"

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "Dear All, Yes, this drug is most reliable. And, for the first time, I used it and never experienced nose blocks, running nose, sneezes, etc. for one month. For testing purposes, I stopped for 10 days, and slowly those conditions started back. Hence, I started using this medicine again. It is too costly but most reliable. Please use it without any hesitation. However, individual medical conditions are different and it may not be suitable. Regards."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "Never again would I use this nasal spray. I have only been using it a week and had to stop it. Have never felt so weak and tired and a high fever on/off so will never use this product again. It also causes palpations."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "I've been using it for a month now, the taste was horrible in the beginning but I've found that if I drink something flavored it goes away. I can breathe a million times better with this spray. I have had chronic sinus headaches since I started taking this but I guess it's a trade off to be able to breathe. I have found no correlation in the spray helping my asthma."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "Originally used flonase and azelastine hcl individually to relieve congestion for allergic rhinitis. Saw that Dymista was the same combination of drugs in one bottle so I thought I would give it a try. Unfortunately not strong enough in dymista. I got much more relief from the individual applications. Not to mention , it was expensive with a 30 dollar copay. One insurance would not cover it at all."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "After 1 month of anti inflammatories I used dymista and got relief wirhin an hour. My allergic reactions are still unknown today but pains associated were gone in an hour. Pains returned after an hour but after steadily using for a few months, and being removed from the affected building, I returned to normal."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "An ENT Specialist recently prescribed this to me for a sleep apnoea work up, I didn't report rhinitis as I don't consider I have it. Yesterday I suffered form severe colon spasms, nausea and headache. Today I had (unpainful) loose urgent motion. I have now looked up the adverse effects of Dymista 125/50 and conclude that this was the cause of the ailments. I thought doctors were supposed to warn you of adverse side effects, to keep an eye out for them! Not happy, lose a days sick leave and it cost $50."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "I have been a user of Flonase for a long time, so I thought I would give this a try. I got a sample from my doctor yesterday. After one use, I am unfortunately going to throw it in the garbage. It may very well work as advertised, but I just can't get over the awful, bitter tasting post-nasal drip that lingers for hours after use. After one use I don't feel like I can comment on its effectiveness, but I would rather be stuffy than taste it every day."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "I have had post nasal RIVER, there is no drip here. I had nasal surgery in 2015, it was wonderful I could breathe, the sneezing and river stopped, BUT the ENT could not figure out what triggered my nasal river. He said it would come back in 2 years. Has gotten so much worse.. In France now, saw ENT & he put me on the spray and Bilaska. I had a terrible time taking cortisone, I was on cortisone for adrenals for 2 years - I was in a fog, I could not think, what my brain thought & what I typed was 2 different things, my speech was impaired - SO many side effects. 10 days using Dymista and I felt like a zombie, I couldn't get out of bed, got up and went back to bed, my thinking was impaired, I could not remember anything (not good when taking French lessons) sleep was worse. Am waiting for test results, seems more like environmental things like dust mites, dander, mold. I stopped taking the spray and am just using the Bilaska & doing pretty good, the steroids seem to bother me."

Dymista (azelastine / fluticasone) "I took this after having weaned off of Sinex nose drops due to allergies to pollens. It worked fine, but could not stand the aftertaste. I tried everything to get it to go away! I also noticed being sleepy and having dreams. Why would it make me so sleepy? Long story short, I discontinued it. I'd rather go back to Sinex and not have bad aftertaste and be more alert."
