Mometasone nasal "I was prescribed by my doctor Nasonex for my polyps. I used it on and off for a couple of years, but only yesterday did it dawn on me that all this while, whenever I felt sickly with a very dry throat, difficulties in breathing, wheezing, trembling hands, dizziness, pressure behind my eyes, headache, muscle pains, neck pain, blurred vision, loss of balance, ear pains, difficulties in swallowing, and chest pains, it was all from after using Nasonex! I thought what was wrong with me. I even went to an emergency room thinking I was getting a stroke or a heart attack. Then I realized last night that all these symptoms only occur whenever I use Nasonex, but whenever I stopped using it, all of these symptoms would subside. So, I Googled for reviews and saw so many people have experienced these bad side effects. I wish I knew sooner!"

Mometasone nasal "I have had polyps removed six times now and have been using Nasonex since it first came on the market. Maybe it stopped some from growing, but for the past five months, I have suffered headaches every day. Maybe I've used Nasonex for too many years for this to start happening. Since stopping the Nasonex, my headaches have ceased. What a relief."

Mometasone nasal "About two years ago, I stayed home sick with what I thought was the flu. After about a week of misery and no relief, I went to the doctor. He told me that all the awful, flu-like symptoms were actually my hay fever acting up, and because I had waited too long to come in, I now had nasal polyps. Many members of my extended family have had them and treated them with Nasonex or even surgery (my aunt can't taste or smell now). Since then, I've used Nasonex nearly every night. There's a very obvious difference between nights I take it and nights that I forget - I tend to wake up with throat congestion and a runny nose. Only once have I actually had a full-on nosebleed."

Mometasone nasal "Pump action spray is terrible. I prime it, have a couple of sprays, and then it comes out in drips. So I repeat the priming again until I get a spray. Meanwhile, I’m pumping half of my medication into the air. I use this product on and off for years as needed. It is excellent, but please fix the bottle. Other products I use, such as Fess spray, work excellently, so why not yours? For the price, I don’t want to waste it."

"This nasal spray seems to have worked well over a number of years, and I am not aware of any side or adverse effects. My complaint is aimed at the cheap and nasty plastic dispenser that easily malfunctions and rarely lasts anywhere near the claimed capacity of 140 doses before it ceases to function at all. Seeing as it's only available on prescription, I'm faced with requesting a repeat prescription long before the actual product has been used. Maybe that suits the manufacturer because this dispenser certainly doesn't suit this consumer."

Mometasone nasal "Sinuva is basically a Mometasone drip. If you’re sensitive to this steroid, run away! Vivid dreams, anxiety, and depression tsunami! I have to wait 76 more days for the steroid implants to dissolve... torture! 24-hour anxiety brain fog! How I wish I knew more about this product before I let my ENT implant them in my sinuses. Mometasone is a beast of a drug!"

Mometasone nasal "I'm having implants removed next week. I have had morning headaches, a sinus infection, and for the past month, one of the most horrible smells in my sinuses. I have had an increase in brain fog. After reading the above comment, I was shocked to read another patient had this side effect. I was getting ready to have tests done for dementia. I will now wait a few months post-removal. I must say these sinus implants helped me at first, after years and years of treatment. By the second month, my body started reacting to them. Morning headache, bad taste all the time, bad smell all the time, brain fog - loss of words, sinus infection treated for 14 days. I will not participate again in sinus implants."

Mometasone nasal "Constantly stuffed up nose. Dr. recommended taking it for a couple of weeks. After day 4, I had extreme rage. I would flip out over the slightest thing, like someone cutting me off driving."

Mometasone nasal "The spray bottle never appears to have enough to deliver the product up the nose. So it doesn't have a chance to work. It definitely doesn't work for the hundred and forty doses."
