Kenalog-40 (triamcinolone) "I had hay fever with extreme itchy eyes while in New Zealand. The doctor gave me a 40mg shot of Kenacort. Within a couple of days, my symptoms cleared, and for 2 years, I was allergy free of any hay fever or asthma.(that included both in US and NZ through their spring seasons). I repeated another injection which lasted close to 2 years. I will be asking my doctor in the US to give me an injection this coming spring. It sure beats nose sprays, inhalers, eye drops, and getting a bloody nose from steroid nose sprays. I had no side effects from the injection either time, accept feeling quite good the first 24 hours. And even better when all my symptoms went away."

Kenalog-40 (triamcinolone) "Seven Stars!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐ ⭐ onthis for Chronic sinusitis/asthma This med for me is awesome! Have had injections once a month for almost 2 years with no known side effects. Asthma and sinuses are better than ever. Many doctors seem afraid it, but it's far better than anything else I've tried without all the bad side effects!"

Azmacort (triamcinolone) "This works! Why was it not reformulated to change the carrier to comply? Dr. has prescribed others - they don't work, and I get side effects. "

Azmacort (triamcinolone) "I was put on Qvar and now Pulmicort. I am having terrible coughing spells many times per day. Azmacort had completely stopped these episodes. Neither Qvar nor Pulmicort are helping me."

Kenalog-40 (triamcinolone) "Really helps for lung constriction, but the side effects are staggering. Within forty eight hours I was shaking uncontrollably, face red, felt like my heart was going to jump out of my chest, face turned into steroid "moon pie", sweating and cannot sleep. Breathing is more important, but this is a ride I wish I could get off of."
