For Allergic Rhinitis "This was just awful for me. From the very first use, I only did one spray per nostril as directed. I had immediate burning, itching, a bad taste in my throat, lots of tearing, runny nose. As soon as it calmed down, I started feeling drowsy. Like I could hardly keep my head up. I may be allergic to an allergy medication. That seems so wrong!"

For Allergic Rhinitis "Caused intense delayed drowsiness and grogginess - as bad or worse than Benadryl, even using a half dose. I took for 3 days in the morning, and every day on Astepro I had to nap in the afternoon because I was unable to maintain consciousness. I never nap normally. Reduces nasal allergies, but at what cost? Also, it's a huge metered dose with a very unpleasant taste."

For Allergic Rhinitis "Astepro nasal spray helped me breathe the first time that I used it, but there was a nasty taste that lingered after each use. Brushing teeth and using mouthwash does not get rid of the aftertaste, and it lingers for hours. It ruined my taste for food and drink. I also experienced a sore throat while using the nasal spray."
